When others are saving every several minutes, the model is being accessed more often and I end up having to wait more often because the model is inaccessible. One of the projects I worked on where there was over 20 people working in the same model at a time, I tended to sync two or three times a day. That is how everyone did it. Limited time accessing the model and a huge increase in productivity. BTW, I never had an issue with losing any workAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-25352446085373650462018-04-04T01:50:28.230-07:002018-04-04T01:50:28.230-07:00Steve, what would you consider to be an 'accep...Steve, what would you consider to be an 'acceptable' sync time for a project - understandably it would depend on the complexity of the project, how well it is maintained, the task(s) just undertaken and the time passed since the last SwC.<br /><br />We are wanting to quantify time saved by SwC on a more regular, shorter interval timeframe, therefore need to understand what is an acceptable SwC time. Is a 2 min SwC time acceptable or excessive?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14086765026555253388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-87683938806958119682017-12-12T18:49:34.320-08:002017-12-12T18:49:34.320-08:00Steve,
Thanks for the post and long time no talk....Steve,<br /><br />Thanks for the post and long time no talk. I annoy the crap out of my office by having the SwC set for every 5 minutes knowing full well they will hit cancel several times before they do it. When it was set to 30 min or even 15, people would cancel so much then eventually crash losing hours worth of work.<br /><br />Dave - in the event that Revit crashes with the 15 min saves, they can open the local model and than sync but 2 hours between syncs is very excessive.Jason Peckovitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818960780901123068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-68036525325747352752017-12-07T12:03:08.791-08:002017-12-07T12:03:08.791-08:00I agree completely with you, Steve.
