What's normal for the time it takes...

I'm using the most current version of VSD. My website has about 70 pages. Even when I make changes on just 2 pages, it takes 25-30 minutes to save the file. Is this normal?

If not, does anyone have any ideas why it's taking so long and what I can do about it? It's a bit discouraging to go in and change one little thing if it's going to take so long to save my file every time.

Do you have an antivirus program running?

I do have an anti-virus program in the background. I'm not sure how active it is when I'm not literally running a scan. Does that make a difference?

Some antivirus programs scan all processes as they take place. I would try turning it off to see if it helps. If it does see if there's any setting to exclude VSD from being scanned.

Thanks for the tip, Rolly! I just saved my file with the anti-virus disabled. It took 8 minutes. That's more like it!
