DXO PureRAW Upgrade Running Slowly

Ever since I upgraded to DXO PureRAW 4.9.0 the program has been a dog. When I first installed it with an earlier version I could process 50MB RAW files in about 10 seconds. I was pleased with the results. After further “upgrades” it takes 5-10 minutes to process RAW files. I have resorted to shooting with lower megapixel camera as an experiment but the results are the same. The configuration choices in the program are very limited but I have the program using my NVIDIA GPU selected over auto or the CPU.

I do not believe it is a systems requirements issue as I am running Windows 11 Pro 64-bit, AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12 Core CPU, 32.0GB Dual-Channel DDR4 RAM, 8MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER (EVGA) GPU as my platform.

I have done several uninstalls and reinstalls of the program and the problem persists. Also, when I close DXO PureRAW after using it, the program will remain running in the background and not close. I have to go into Windows Task Manager and “End Task” to get it to turn off.

Tech support has not been particularly helpful with a solution thus far.

Has anyone else experiences this and have a solution to speed the program up?
