Interesting - Mac 32-bit is blazing fast and doesn't have this issue.  64-bit 
Mac can crank about a one per second (slowing down to a handful per minute 
after a few hours). Windows 10 is steady at about 1 per second on very fast 
hardware.  My 2017 iMac running v17 32-bit can rip through about 3 per second 
and it doesn't slow down.

Memory was stable for 4D - didn’t check the overall system though.
