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

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?

saved locally? or elsewhere?

Hi Dan,

the project is saved in my area on the server. Together with FGDB and SHP.

Additionally I have feature classed from SDE on another server and few map services.

That seems like a long time to save the project.

If the project is saved locally and not on the server, does it save faster?

All saved on the internal network servers. But saving the layout file on my C drive seems to help. Thanks a lot

I was just curious whether you had tried saving to a different location to rule out that aspect (ie save to your local machine vs the server)

Glad that works... If you have the luxury of working locally do so, and upload elsewhere when you are done

Are you saving just the aprx file to your C-drive or also the data such as file gdbs and shapefiles?

All data is stored remotely... But saving aprx to C drive seems to help.
