slow down startup and random freezes

hi Gian,
I have a very old symenu installation I'm using daily for many years.
I'm using syncthing on my 4 computers, to sync the whole symenu folder, 11GB, and I noticed a weird behaviour.
Maybe it was partly present before, but now it started to be very noticable.
1, The startup of symenu takes 1-2 minutes now. While "frozen", the splash image is displayed with 50% brightness, and symenu systray icon has a green square blinking rapidly in its bottom right corner.
2, at random time while using PC, symenu UI freezes completely. Sometimes while clicking on symenu systray icon, sometimes while browsing options, doing app updates, etc. This freezed state lasts 2-3 minues, after that, symenu continues to work as usual.
This is not an issue of having all apps in root, discussed here on forums before.
I have maybe 60 entries in symenu, apps and a few custom exe file launchers. see the screenshot here - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sar-DplI-VFQif7hj9xEHLD5KIV7cmWD?usp=sharing
could you advice on how to debug this, before I embark on a difficult way - installing a fresh new symenu and copying all my apps and settings there?
