thunderbird on the mac constantly hanging going into beachball wait

It's gotten a bit better but still roughly 2/3 of the time when I touch the Thunderbird app to do *anything* I get the beachball and it hangs. Eventually, usually, it comes back and continues to work for a time. But I never know when it will happen again, how long it will last each time, etc. It is only barely useable like this.

I'm running it in Troubleshoot mode and not seeing any real difference. There's nothing in the error console.
