Thanks for all the responses.

I have made a discovery, I use the Qt-Curve widget style.  On a system 
that was still using the Oxygen widget style, normally I only use the 
oxygen icons, but while using the oxygen widget the panel and tray where 
behaving erratic/jumpy/fuzzy while taking a timed-snapshot with 
spectacle.  I had already done the same on some other systems using 
stretch, buster and sid, so I changed the setting to use the qt-curve 
widget and the change was amazing and all was extremely stable and now 
spectacle is stable on all my plasma-5 systems using qt-curve while 
taking a timed-snapshot using spectacle.
