IFC Project save time lapse.
Hello, I have long time lapses when I save an IFC model after modifying the geometry, and I want to know if there is a configuration in blender to improve this time, I already enable the option no undo for faster saves, but its not been very helpful.

Is the geometry you're edit complex? many facets?
Are you only saving the .IFC, and not the .blend file too?
I don't think it's a Blender problem. Unless your file is nearing the Gb in size or you're saving it on a server or an external drive, it should be fast. The IFC serialization can take some time though with ifcopenshell, could you elaborate on the type / complexity of geometry you're using in your file ?
@LuisGzzBueno can you please first update to the latest developer version, which likely has a lot of fixes and may already fix this issue. https://blenderbim.org/docs/devs/installation.html#unstable-installation
Otherwise can you please ensure that you can recreate the problem (e.g. first edit something, save it or save as, and make sure it reliably takes a long time) then submit a bugreport? You can send your file to dion@thinkmoult.com if it's private. These types of bugs are difficult to track down unless a user stumbles across them so if you can isolate the bug and make it reproducable it will be incredibly valuable!
Hello,
I attached an example of the IFC file. This one is created in Autodesk Inventor with a plugin called BimDEX, I tried to reduce the number of vertex and faces with the instant clean plugin for blender, however the time lapse is still too much.
