[GRASS-user] Exporting Vector data to SHP (v.out.ogr)- takes a lot of time

[Luis Lisboa]

Greetings

I have produced a vector map (with r.to.vector) with the following metadata:

v.info test01

Now I'm trying to export it to SHAPEFILE but, after 10 minutes the
processing bar is not even in 40%. What might be happening? I mean, is it
some error with the vector or when I convert to vector (from raster)?
Because, taking more than 10 minutes to export to vector it's not normal (I
guess) and taking nearly 7 min to convert to vector also...

Thanks for the reply
