12.1 Lightroom freezing and delaying with every edit

Please help. I was editing fine a few days ago, and all the sudden my lightroom classic (mac user) is unusable. Every click freezes or delays the edit. I can't work. 12.1 version. What is happening?!

While holding down the keys, launch Lightroom Classic.
When asked, select "Yes".

What type of images do you work with? JPEG or RAW? Does Lightroom Classic slow down at a certain tool or task? In the meantime, try this:


Looking forward to hearing back from you. Thanks!
