Hey there,
haven't used PP in a decade+, so I'm basically back to basics.
System Info:
Win 10
128 GB RAM
4x M2 Key SSDs for scratch (1 TB disk dedicated for cache) & clips
Dual Xeon CPUs (lower grade)
Quadro M5000 GPU (8GB)
PP version 23.6.0.(Build 6s)
Project Info:
7x tracks 4K ProRes
2x tracks FHD ProRes
multicam
2 audio tracks (1 disabled, for reference, , all others "deleted")
1 main sequence containing one nested sequence, and that one containing 2 straight clips and 7 nested
Problem info:
no crashes or freezing, super smooth playback at 25% res, but if I, e.g., create a keyframe, it takes several seconds to process and letting me "touch" the interface again. Same goes for returning to PP after task switching (web browser), or opening a source clip inside PP, the latter taking especially long to open.
Once PP has "recovered", I can scrub and play back like it's nothing, but getting there is a pain.
Steps taken so far:

You need at least 32 gig of ram to edit 4K and 16 for HD.

Yes, in my post I mentioned having 128 GB.

Sorry my mistake.

It appears, this delay comes to be whenever I click into a different window, for example, switch to comparison view and then go back into the timeline window, I have to wait 7 seconds until I can move the playhead, play back or similar. That quickly turns into a minute, hour etc. What is PP DOING when that happens, and ist there any setting I could improve?
Edit: this also often influences effects, e.g. color wheels. If I try to work as I'd expect, i.e. click on the wheel and drag, often nothing happens, because there's that delay again, and I have to undo, because in the meanwhile the crosshair position is somewhere in extremis. So I#d have to hover click, waiiiiiiit, count to about 7 seconds, then drag.

Did you ever find a solution? This just started happening to me today.

Frankly, I can't remember, I'm sorry... it may have been an update fixed it, which often seems to be the case, but atm that doesn't help you. Maybe powering off/on will, or saving the entire project as, I'm sorry I can't help. I believe I finished the project in slo-mo mode, since I was already almost done...

Delete the Media Cache and Media Cache files:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the preferences:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:
Reset a workspace
Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.
1. Do one of the following:
• Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout.
• Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.
from here:

If that doesn't work, try Preferences > Audio Hardware and set Input to None.
If that doesn’t work, try updating or rolling back your graphics driver directly from the video card manufacturer’s site. If NVIDIA, do a clean installation of the latest Studio Driver (NOT the Game Driver).
If that doesn't work, try creating a new project and import the old one into it.
