Comment:

 Reporting similar results.  My template makes use of Custom Fields as
 well.  Most pages require 2 Custom Field entries.

 Anytime I try to enter two or more, it only saves the last one I entered.
 But if I try to enter one, then save, then enter the next one, the script
 hangs, and the page doesn't seem to get saved.

 In addition to this, I'm also getting the "random drafts" being generated.
 Very confusing at first -- because pages that were published are also
 showing up in drafts, and I wasn't sure whether it would be safe to delete
 them.  (Thankfully, the ones in "drafts" really ARE drafts, and deleting
 them will not affect your published posts.)

 This has only happened since 2.5, and it still happens in 2.5.1.

 Just saw the "workaround" posted at
 http://wordpress.org/support/topic/163769 (SAVE before you begin adding
 custom fields) but saving seems to be slow.  I actually kinda think I like
 the pre 2.5 wp-admin better than the current one.  The new one definitely
 looks nicer, but seems slower.
