dec 18 master - repeated short stall for 10-15 seconds, long stall, finder copy window self closes

dec 18 master - higher top speed with spiking/stalling vs 1.8.1(1.8.2) - lower speed with no stalls
This is really bizarre as I tested the dec 20 master for 24 hours before this issue appeared. It seemed fast and stable.
