In Task Manager, take a look at the Processes tab, the very top row, and check out the utilization percentage of your
CPU, Memory, and Disk. Take a look at the specific row for LR and see what it's using, as well as any other CPU/Memory/Disk hog programs. Clicking on the column (e.g., CPU) will sort the use, just look for the little carrot ^v in the label to note sort order. Same for Memory...
Then use the Performance Tab to check out CPU, then Memory utilization.
