Ok, you're getting timeouts while creating visual previews. Usually that means, that your computer is not up to doing as many tasks in parallel as are configured in the Settings. Please go to Settings/Expert settings and lower the amount of parallel processes for the visual preview generation.
I don't think this is an issue with the beta, that would most likely be the same with LRT5.8.

thanks i forgot to turn this down after installing the .11 - my bad.
