Endlessly spinning while loading studio data

Hello,
Lately, I've been having a constant problem where Onshape can't load and the wheel just keeps spinning endlessly, really endlessly.
The only solution is to close the document and reopen it immediately, then it loads without any problems and immediately.
The question is whether the problem is caused by the computer (Mac mini M4) or by Onshape itself.
Are other users experiencing this problem?
Kind regards
ProApe

Yes. Its something that happens. Its impossible to tell if refreshing the browser tab will fix the issue. Sometimes refreshing clears it, sometimes it just sets the wait timer back to 0. The best thing I do for myself in these situations is I take a moment while the spinner is going, I open up an old assembly from my solidworks system that is of comparable size, and I let it really sink in what, "waiting for stuff to load" actually feels like. 😁.
edit: I think there are some ongoing problems since last Friday that ore causing this to happen a lot more. I am sort of pulling my hair out right now over some other really problematic things including this loading issue.
I'm working in the app and it can't be refreshed – at least, I don't see how it could be done. As long as closing and reopening the document is a solution, it's something you can live with.
Incidentally, the last time this occurred, about an hour ago, it wasn't even about loading data, but simply displaying a measurement, which surely doesn't require a lot of resources!
