Thank you Kess for the suggestions: Number of photos per directory: I tried this but it seems to have had no benefit. i went from 200 photos in one directory down to 50 photos in four directories, and there was no change.
I will try your other suggestions (disable automatic re-catalogging and disable virus scanning of folders). BTW: I have tried running lightroom in safe mode and the problem still occurred.
