You may be having a "thrashing" problem which occurs when the system runs out of real memory and begins heavily use the swap space. If swap space runs out, then the system begins to crawl along even slower.

Use a terminal window and issue the command "swapon" to determine the size and usage of the swap file. The default Rpios swap file size is 100MB which can be limiting depending on what is running. If you find the swap usage is close to the allocated amount, then edit /etc/dphys-swapfile and increase CONF_SWAPSIZE to something larger.
