Whenever an app gets into a "not responding" state, it usually can be attributed to its UI thread being blocked by a long-running task, and the solution typically is to move that long-running task to a background thread. But since it's been working fine "for over 10 years", and is happening with multiple, unrelated (?) apps, it's hard to blame that. I'd say you're probably correct in that there's something else in one of the prior upgrades that has introduced a problem that wasn't there before.

You could start rolling back to previous versions, but (a) I don't know how much of a hassle this is going to be for you and (b) it's still going to be a needle in a haystack. But, if you go back far enough to demonstrate, say, that a version that used to work no longer does...then it could be failing hardware, such as a disk taking its sweet time to respond and affecting every application. But if you could pinpoint a specific version where the problem reappears (when moving from version X to version X+1), then at least you could start looking at a change log.

I can't think of much else to add at this point other than good luck. I can only imagine just how frustrating this sort of thing can be.
