Long save times

brodie · 10 Jul 2018, 18:02

Do other people have issues with long save times? I've been testing Vray for SU 3.60.03 with SU 2018. My test scene is 40mb. Generally that size saves pretty quickly for me but this scene which has vray proxies, materials, etc. saves obnoxiously slow. I haven't timed it but it's probably a few minutes or so, sometimes longer. Do others have this issue or know what it relates to?

edit: did a test and timed it saves in just over 4 minutes

Doing a bit more testing, it seems that when I open a file it saves very quickly <5 seconds. Once I open the VfSU GUI the save time jumps to several minutes. Closing the UI doesn't change the save time but if I close and reopen the file the save time goes back to <5 seconds (until I reopen the UI again).

not sure if its related but when you disable 'redefine thumbnail on save' (model info - file) saving is a lot faster compared to when its enabled.

I may have found the answer. I closed my Outliner and that seems to have fixed the save time issue.
