Is it normal that ArcGIS Pro 2.2 takes long time to save layout?

[AleksanderKedzior]

I have an ArcGIS Pro project with some 200 layers, connected to SDE, FGDB, map services and even shapefiles.

It takes approximately 2-3minutes to open the project - not too long overall.

I have a layout in which e.g. only few layers are on - but it takes 3h to actually save the layout (using Share ribbon/Layout file). 

The file is only app 14MB - but I observed that the save rate is 2-5KB per second at most....

Is it normal?

Again - when opening the saved layout in another project - it takes 2-3 minutes... It's just saving that is causing the issues...

Has anyone any experience with it?

Is your connection to the network location a "mapped drive" or are you using an UNC path.  Mapped drives are preferred, according to Esri.  Being forced to work locally and then move your work to the network later is not a good workflow, in my opinion.

Working locally is preferred in my opinion Networks and cloud are great for backups.

It depends on what works for you.  The shorter the distance between the keyboard and the data removes a lot of uncertainty

Hi Joe - yeah - I have them mapped. I agree it's not ideal (as I have my working space on server) - but it is very occasional so I guess I can live with it for now.
