I'm running OOTPB 2007 on a Mac. I routinely do a save game while playing.

I see a lot of variability in how long this takes. Usually it finishes pretty quickly - 10-20 seconds. But every so often (maybe once every 20 saves) it takes forever. It seems to happen at the 10% (Saving Players) stage.

The first couple times this happened, I thought the program had frozen, and terminated it. But one time I let it run, and after 4-5 minutes - it finished saving successfully! So now when it hangs, I just wait...

Any idea what could be going on? Or what I could be looking for?

Thanks.

Peter
