Issue/Introduction
Error Message :
N/A
After clicking the ucdj.exe to open the UI, the "Automic" splash screen comes up and hangs. The login screen that should follow may or may not load. If it does load, it takes various amounts of time.
Behavior is coupled with the presence of large (over 1GB) .hprof files in the users' UI/temp folder, seemingly generated at random.
Issue has only been observed as occurring after upgrading all components from 11.1 to 11.2.
