Adobe Premiere CC slow in response

Question

Hi,
I recently upgarded to Adobe Premiere Pro CC and I notice that it is very slow in response and there is like 10 seconds lag for every step I do. I notice my computer goes up to 30 percent of workload. The problem arises when I am going from one sequence to another sequence, it lags or copy something in a sequence and then it lags. I have been using CC for 4 months and I did not have a problems with CS6. But this really annoys me.
My computer specs:
CPU i7-920 3.6gHz OC
48 GB of RAM @ 1466Mhz
Quadro K5000 with latest drivers
5x2TB at RAID 5
250gb OS SSD around 140 free space
120gb SSD - Around 40 free.
My cache drive was 120gB SSD, even I change the cache drive to RAID5 drives, it doesn't make a difference.
Now, when I export to render to Adobe media encoder, it takes 10sec. It used to take a sec to do that with CS6.
Is there something I could change in the settings that would make premiere pro faster in response?
I am looking forward for your reply.

I am having the same problem!  Interestingly my Sony VAIO Duo 13 Ultrabook is pretty light on it's feet with Premiere but my custom built NLE frequently runs into these problems.
The result is that I can often load a project faster in the ultrabook and some projects I can actually edit faster!!?  The ultrabook has a satisfyingly powerful Corei7 but no serious graphics capabilities to speak of, so rendering is software only and it bogs down a lot when working with compressed formats like AVHCD.  I got it just to use it's Wacom digitizer for Photoshop and Illustrator but on my last video, I got frustrated with my desktop NLE machine and cut it on my tiny laptop.  (Did it in the car on a road trip.  Fun to be able to!  But vastly less than ideal for anything very professional.)
My problem is that Once my desktop NLE is running, it can churn through very complex native editing like a dream.  It's just that every time I need to change what the program is doing, it takes an exceedingly long time to load new components of the program, i.e. bringing up an effects panel or the audio mixer.  My assumption is that once everything the program needs is loaded into ram, there is no problem, but the program is somehow interfering with computers reading and writing to the C: drive where the program is held.  Maybe it is creating is some issue with ram caching to the C: drive that is slowing things down.  After working with Premiere the problem persists and it takes equally long to open other programs.  I had similar problems this summer with the CS6 AVHCD bug in this thread.  This is not as bad, but seems very similar in its manifestation.  There is no longer any connection to any one codec.  Instead, the problem seems to emerge as Premiere has been running for a while.  Or after opening Premiere, closing it and then reopening with out a system restart in between.  A project imported from Final Cut Pro 6 via XML was particularly problematic, but the problem is sporadic so it was hard to tell if it was that or just a couple of bad days.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
