Slow saving of games

[spadgas]

Um. So, this comes up from time to time but I've noticed that when saving games, skyrim stops dead for a noticeable time.

 

My save games aren't I think that big (19,300kb for the ess, 1450kb for the skse file more or less. they go up and down a bit but are around that size.), but the time taken to save the latter is terrible. You can go into windows explorer and find your save files, and watch it growing. Literally. It's like it's being written a chunk at a time.

 

Is there anything that can be done to speed this up?

This happens to me as well, from time to time. What helps for me is simply saving on a new savegame and deleting the old one.

Always create a new save, never overwrite its just better really and turn of Autosave and use Autosave Manager

I am using autosave manager. this happens even when I'm saving to a brand new save game. It's horribly random.

normally the lower the skse co save file is the better you got some mods that could interfere with the saving of games you should really check witch mods are causing this or you could ultimately get to the point that the savegame is unable to load anymore.

as far as I can tell from all the various places I've looked at these aren't large file sizes, and they aren't growing rapidly.

 

Again, the problem is the way it (sometimes) saves the file in tiny bits and pieces
