If the problem is diskperformance (which i'm thinking) you can try this scenario:

1] Remove or move not used content from the disk to backupmedia (usb harddrive or similar).

2] Also move the project directory to another location (physical harddrive).

3] Make sure you have a minimal of 70% free space available.

4] Now defragment the drive.

5] Copy the project directory back to the defragmented drive.


Disk performance on fast disk will suffer if the total use comes above 85% depending on the fragmentationlevel. Using the series of instruction above you can improve your disk troughput as the audio project files are copied back to a not defragged drive and thus are copied contigues to de harddrive which gives less seektimes.

This is not a permanent solution as it is labour intensive, but still a workable work-a-round.

Let us (me) know if you consider this.
