Endnote X8 slowness problem ("lagging")

I don’t have any of the terms list active except for journal.  The oly other thing seems to be the “depth” of your library in the folder structure?  This could lead to very long names for your attachments.  Also – how many output styles do you have?  

If you haven’t already, though, I would consider cleaning up your journal terms list according to the suggestions here: http://endnote.com/kb/82228 and turning off journal auto-updating.
