Okay, I took a shot at making ViewPreview more asynchronous and changed how the caches are cleared to minimize load and cache clear overlap. Had to redesign WebProfileMgr to use unique data names and to always give new profiles (no reuse) so that clearing a profile cache did not fry second instance of Sigil.

I have pushed all of this to master. So if you build your own, please give a try and let me know if it works and what the log file shows.

I have also made a ci build for just Windows. I have uploaded it to my personal repo (see earlier links) and the file is names Sigil-2.7.5-DEBUG5-Windows-x64-Setup.exe
in case you have time to help out but do not build your own.

Thanks everyone for all your help! It is greatly appreciated.
