[SOLVED] Just upgraded from 1.5.6 to 1.6.2, PDF writing became very slow

Hiya, I've been using Scribus for 3 years for quite simple packaging designing.
The old (1.5.6) version didn't load in today, so I decided to re-install/upgrade it. I updated the Ghostscript as well.
When I start generating PDF pages, it takes "forever" - 30-50sec for 3-8 pages comparing to what it used to be yesterday - 1-2sec - with the old version. If I click on the screen during the writing process, the "not responding" text comes up, but after waiting a while it finishes and Acrobat opens with the pdf files. So it always made the PDFs I wanted, but it obviously "struggles" and makes my work a lot slower.
I could go back to 1.5.6, it worked for me totally fine, until now, but if you have any idea how I can fix this, I'd appreciate it so much!
Thanks,ZG

Solved... The only thing I haven't tried yesterday - well it was just after midnight here, is to restart my PC. So you might be right with the old config file, and instead of panicking I should have just reboot the computer... Aging not always goes together with wisdom...
Thanks and have a great day!
