Sage PDF print function increasingly slower - ERP 2012 PU5

Hi

We have a client using outlook 2013, Sage 2012 PU5.

Emailing statements from Sage Statement function, starts off fast  it is as quick as one minute and then slows down to 4 minutes per statement.  its taking around 4 days to send 2000 statements.

We loaded 

  • KB 47534: Error: Memory leak when printing Sage 300 ERP reports 
  • Checked crystal layout and size of image

Mailpac which is a third party app to send AP Remittances and any custom mods we do that call the Sage Pdf print function all perform slowly.

As anyone else experienced this?

Do you think upgrading to 2016 will improve this or does it get worse!
