FWIW I went thru a period where PT/RB gave me issues with hanging. That problem went away a couple updates later. Don't recall if it was 2016 or not.

What I found was that a process called STOM.EXE would get stuck open. When it happened you could see it in the Task Manager process list after closing RB/PT.
Manually closing it (End Task) would cure it for a while.
Not sure what triggered the problem, assumed it was a plugin, but anyway I haven't seen the issue in years.

Jeff couldn't duplicate it at the time so it may have been machine/environment specific, but somehow something fixed it.
