Creating smart object extremely slow when saving document in Ps

[dragantomas]

Hi All,

MacBook Pro M1 Max 16'. 1tb ssd and 64gb of Ram. Latest version of Ps 24.3.0

Operation of creating a smart object on the new stamp layer takes extremely long time when in the same time saving the document (cmd S)

First I click on Cmd+S to start saving the doc (bottom left corner Saving % is slowly progressing)  >  Creating a new stamp layer and converting it to Smart object > a dialog box with the forward moving progress bar appears in the middle of the screen and is stuck there between 1 and 2 min sometimes even (much) longer (see screen shot), depending how big the saving file is.

I have also done the full reset& redownload of Photoshop. Didnt help the problem.

However if I fully save the the file first, creating of a smart object is near instant then. 

Anyone knows what is going on here and how to fix this?

Photoshop cannot (at current) save two images simultaneouly but saves one after the other.

I dont think I mentioned I have a problem with saving 2 images simmultaneously.

What do you think a Smart Object is? 

A document (aka image) that’s embedded in another document (unless it’s a Linked Smart Object naturally).
