Anyone else having issues with Terragen taking a long time to save scenes?

Or, it could be described as a very long hang after a save.

Dune

Some big exr's take a little while to save, but never extreme. And hangs after saving I've never had.

WAS

Yeah its taking me awhile to even get the dialogue to save and then it saves for a long time, even tifs which PS seems to save rather fast (unlike PNGs which seem to take ages). EXRs probably naturally have a lot of extra data and only recently saving huge maps. Though i cant open them in TG. :/

Kadri

Scenes no... But big objects and big EXR like images can take a while.

It happens for me since TG 4 (or 3 even, not sure), where even saving the default scene will take minutes. Typically the first save takes longest, it's a bit faster after that but never instant as it should be for a few hundreds KBs. I never could find the cause of this.

Dune

I could imagine saving time also has to do with the location. When I sometimes save something on a stick, it needs to read it first somehow, and you get the 'waiting' thing.
