Exporting to Openstudio taking Long time

Hi Everyone I have a model that I am working on that takes hours to export. Its a 6 story Building that Once I get to openstudio will be a 34 story (with multipliers). I do not have constructions or systems entered but the model takes a few hours to get transferred. I have worked on complex models which I have been able to use for whole building simulations within HB. This time I am trying to transfer to OS and it has transferred but coming back to make changes is a concern due to time lengths. Anyone else experiencing this? Any thoughts?

One think that I think would cause the exporting time increase dramatically is the unit in Rhino. Check if you have a meter unit, it takes extra (a lot) time to convert all units to meter if you use other than meter.

Thank you. I will try that out. Right now my units are in feet.

Huge time difference! Its like nothing now. Thanks again

and why is that? @MingboPeng is this something that can be addressed on our side? Why should it take so long?
