Crafting Menu Slowdown

I've been playing for a while on a decently length save (around 2-3 seasons) on the experimental and I've recently ran into an issue where I've been getting really bad slowdowns and hangups on certain things. The most egregious and game breaking one being the crafting menu taking absolutely FOREVER to do anything. It opens fine for the most part, but swapping categories will cause a freeze for a good minute depending on how many recipes there is or scrolling through the items will be super slow with some recipes freezing as well. If I even go onto the nested category I get locked into a permanent freeze that forces me to quit the game. Cleaning out my base a bit certainly helped a bit but even bare naked in a field far away in newly generated terrain with nothing the crafting menu still has quite a bit of lag and freezes.
Now this is probably my fault since I made the stupid decision of updating my nightly build (I just wanted more walk-away recipes) mid-save which I'm sure is probably what caused it. The only error I get thought is a bunch of book missing item definitions on world load but I don't 100% think is the issue? From the looks of it and going through github's changelog, they're only morale books but I wouldn't be surprised if they were messing with the crafting menu somehow.

Is there something I could do to fix this or am I just screwed?
