Thank you for the advice. I did make a change to the anitvirus to exclude my photo folders and LrC folders. This made a small improvement as well. The system nows to appear to be unstable as now the delays come and go, but not always. As I continued to further investigate, I am now looking to see if there was a driver update that I was not aware of that may have installed.
What about your Windows Paging file? Do you let Windows adjust that automatically, or have you decreased it, and perhaps even if you did not change the default, maybe it needs to be increased????

I have a very similiar configuration except running Win11 with very similiar memory problem. It is related to masks in develop mode. My workaround was to look at the pagefile allocation and found that it was set to low values. I have let Windows automatically manage the pagefile which has stopped the crashes although the underlying memory problem is still there. If the pagefile is manually managed it should be at least 1.5 times the amount of real memory, ie, at least 48GB on a 32GB machine and it should be on a SSD, but not the same SSD as the catalogue. The jury is still out but my machine as not crashed since making this change."
