Parallel meshing isn't as efficient as the solve, so you may be seeing some effect there. It's a bigger file than normal, but as I don't know how many boundaries there are it's difficult to comment: it's not excessively large though. Are you saving locally or to a remote drive? How much RAM have you got?
