Any ideas on what may be causing it?

The list of indexes to be searched by default for the admin user includes 'All non-internal indexes' which may cause performance problems

I looked under Roles for the admin user and you can see the "all non-intenral indexes" is selected for indexes. You can select one of the other available indexes. I haven't decided which one to select. Just fyi.

All internal indexes
