Bug Description
We're working on a fairly complex board, and using a recent nightly build:
kicad-git-
Running pcbnew, it takes around 3min to open the design.
We noticed that it started taking a really long time to save the design. In one instance, it completely crashed (program exited) while saving a file. When we subsequently tried to open the file, it was corrupted.
We reverted back to an older kicad version;
kicad-git-
And checked out the file to a previous version. However, despite reverting backwards, we're still seeing saves take a long time, relative to how long they took prior to updating kicad.

Victor, can you please include the version information from the About dialog (there is a copy version information button you can use) for the versions you are using.
Also, what do you mean by complex? It would help if you could provide a sample that demonstrates this problem.
