Custom Crop Region - Known Issue Printing extreamly slow

There seems to be a known issue with Revit 2016 printing extremely slow when there are “custom crop regions”.

A custom crop region was brought into Revit in 2014 and apparently this has been an ongoing issue.

Here’s a link to Autodesk’s Knowledge Network, however I really don’t think their proposed solutions are much of a solution.

My suggestion would be to avoid the use of “custom” non rectangular crop regions.
