What would cause a publish to take over 2 minutes?
I have a file in the CMS that is about 16.4 Mb. What would cause a publish of this item to take over 2 minutes?

I have workflow/versioning turned on. Could that be the culprit? It probably has to save a copy of the file somewhere, but I believe that my files are being saved to the file system, and not the database, in which case the file copy would be fast. Any ideas here? Thanks,

RE:What would cause a publish to take over 2 minutes?
Hello,

The workflow causes saving all versions of documents and attachments to database. Attachments are stored in database including the binary data of content.

If you use Store files in file system in the file system it means it saves files to file system, too. When you request data it gets them from file system.

So, as you said saving the copy of content to database because of new version may cause the delay.

Best regards,
