Summary


Details

Having a complex Part with a lot of B-spline Faces and a particular material
can result in a huge file size which takes a long time to save to disk.  Is there a way to improve this?



Solution

The reason for this may lie in the fact that the physical properties need to be calculated before saving and then be stored in the file.  Furthermore, if in the Variable Table the value for PhysicalProperties_Accuracy is set to 1.00 when the default is 0.99, it may take an extremely long until the file is saved. Although the difference between these values is only 0.01, nevertheless it will make a big difference.
