Non-Speedy File Saves

[SWKennedy]

Has there been anyone that has experienced a save time increase when saving a file that has an assembly created with the routing add-in?

The raw assembly saves almost as fast as I push the save button, as soon as I add a routing assembly, the save time climbs to 10 minutes+. I never experienced this problem when using 2009, it has only been a problem since we've upgraded to 2010. The routing files in the models made with 2009 were huge before we experienced a wait time while saving, whereas the ones that I'm creating with 2010 only take a small routing file before the save time increases.

Been using Routing since 2007 all the way through 2010 without noticing anything like the problem you are describing. Sounds like something else is going on. I just finished saving a huge assembly with dozens of routes, and am taking less than two minutes on the save.

Have your old files been converted and saved to SW2010 format.

Despite being fairly certain all of my parts were SW2010, I did check a large portion of them just to be sure, and they have all been converted.

DekkerDesign, I was afraid it might be something else, but I can only repeat the problem when using routing so I'm not sure where else to look.

When you are creating your routes, do you attempt to make them in as few routes as possible, or do you do your best to break them up into shorter runs? Does it even matter in your situation? A coworker suggested that I might be making mine too big, and exceeding common practice on how many parts to put into one assembly, but I'm certain in 2009 I've made them much bigger.

I've got spreads of multiple variations, large complex routes done in pipe, short routes in pipe, large routes in tubing using multi body parts, tubing routes using single body parts, tubing run through clips, you name it, on this job I had to do it. And I know that our entire database hasn't made the 2010 conversion yet, though it is close.
