In the past during an autosave, studio would not freeze and would allow you to continue moving around, panning the camera, etc.
Since the last update, it now freezes the mouse position, does not allow camera rotation, and more. Autosave was amazing and super smooth in the past because it caused absolutely no interference, but now that it causes studio freezing temporarily it is very jarring when an autosave occurs.

vid of it happening:
i assume the larger the place file the more hanging time there is. (I think the official name is Auto-Recovery not autosave)
ive tried uploading a dmp file like 10 times but its too big to send 
it’s 1gb zipped and 9gb unzipped.
Hi! Thanks for reaching out. We have not recently made changes to the autosave functionality and it has always been blocking. Is it possible that it was the changes you introduced recently to the place that made serialization slower? In the long term, we are discussing how to improve autosave but there is no timeline yet to promise.

Potentially could be a bias from me: I’m usually in the script editor during auto saves, but recently have been building more. Just wanted to make sure this wasn’t new behavior! Thanks for your response!
