QGIS 2.18 on Linux Mint 18.1 64 bit

I recently had to clean install my OS & QGIS etc. Whilst it's mostly working, the raster georeferencer is unusably slow most of the time.

I thought initially it didn't like jpgs and pdfs were OK, but it is the same regardless. On clicking transform, the progress indication window opens & it will sit there for an indeterminate period (I left it over 30 minutes once). There is a lot of CPU activity across all four cores. The only way out I've found is to kill QGIS.

If I have the Target Resolution box empty, the result is an image comprising large blocks/pixels and a wide black component. If I select the target resolution, I can improve the image (but still unusable) however, to get anything vaguely usable, the process takes ages as mentioned above

All my previous installations have been fine & I have never had a problem with the georeferencer.

Any ideas where to look please?
Many thanks
