Do you have it building smart previews? In my experience that takes a lot of CPU horsepower and increases the time to import things. You can choose minimal, standard, Embedded & Sidecar for the smart previews. Minimal will take less CPU resources.
IF that's not it I'd unload the whole thing, download and re-install. If that doesn't work go to the Adobe help 'chat' line and they'll get you straightened out. I had a problem making my brushes work when using my Wacom tablet. They fixed me up in about 5 minutes after I wasted a couple of hours trying to fix it myself.

I suppose this could be a problem, but my old computer gave me fits and it didn't have a LR compatible GPU so it wasn't used by LR and my new computer does have a LR compatible GPU and is used by LR. My computer still gets to a point when I use it extensively where it starts to bog down and eventually just locks up. As I said to the OP my only fix for this is when I notice things acting strange, just exit LR and then restart. It works fine after that until it bogs down again.
This sounds like a memory issue. The software is supposed to clear the memory as does what it's supposed to do then moves to the next process where the stuff in memory is no longer needed. When you restart you're basically clearing everything out of memory. I find it hard to believe that after all these years Adobe would have memory clearing problems. It must be something particular to your machine.
