        The egg-timer [sand?] appears when Sketchup 'Auto-Saves'.
        If it's a large Model and you haven't been keeping the SKP trimmed by using Model Info > Statistics > Purge Unused etc that it will take a while to do each one.
        Under Window > Preferences you can set the Auto-Save ON/OFF, or increase the time-period between between these saves.
        However, you must then remember to save manually 'regularly' - especially before any major operations that might cause a Bugsplat!

          the issue was from my SDcard, it seems my SDcard is to slow for save
          so I copied my work on my destop like this the save and auto save are much quicker
          by the way I desactived the autosave to across the menu

            Saving across a network or to a 'plugin-in' device can be much slower.
            It's always a good idea to work on a 'local' copy... as you have discovered.
