I misread him and did not catch that he was printing SpyderProof test images from Spyder3Print SR; my error.  That is what happens when one reads things in a hurry while multi-tasking. Thanks for pointing that out C. David.  I apologize for my misreading and misleading response.

>>While I do not know that much about SSD drives, whether or not they can get fragmented, and  I have acknowledged that fragmentation is a sometimes cause, I do need to ask if the SSD drive is the only drive on the machine or the main drive on the machine which houses the operating system? It would also be helpful to know  (a) how large the image data file that is giving you problems is, (b) if it contains unflattened layers or not, (c) if your operating system’s pagefile is a dynamic or static pagefile, (d) what image editing program you are using , (e) if the image editing program has a scratch disk of its own, and (f) where that image editing applications scratch disk is located with respect to the hard drive partition and the operating system along with its pagefile.


If he's printing the SpyderProof test images from Spyder3Print SR, then the image size is quite modest, and the image is flattened, in jpg format. No image editing program involved if the test image is being printed directly from our app.
