Adobe released Lightroom Classic 7.2 and writes:

In the past, many users have reported that Lightroom becomes slower after a prolonged usage. This issue should have been fixed with this version. Also, resource-intensive activities, such as export, import, preview generation, and HD/panorama merge should be faster if your machine has 12 GM or more RAM.
We, specifically, have implemented changes related to Threading Building Blocks (TBB). This should be effective on machines with 12 GB or more RAM.

If using Adobe’s subscription service bothers you a lot than switch over to Capture One 11 (Click here) : You get a unique 10% discount when entering the coupon code “AMB43R“.
