DWG Never Stops Loading

I've had this DWG shared to me:
https://cad.onshape.com/documents/34bf3bd45c956d9deef89986/w/b475b00c3e1894587b4c1515/e/2adbd0ed432e1cc3f7b8d4b0
1. It never stops loading
2. It's almost impossible to make a copy of it, because the interface is not separated from the core, so it takes 10 minutes to make a copy.
3. Once I've made a copy, I struggle equally to share it again because the interface is not responding.

25MB for a DWG file is big. I did manage to open it in both the DWG viewer and by converting it to an Onshape drawing but it did take some time. However, you can copy and share no problem since the UI is disconnected from the modeling servers.Senior Director, Technical Services, EMEA0

You're layout is beefy

It even lags while panning in a full seat of AutoCAD 2018. I purged the filed and re-uploaded it. It is half the file size.
Still takes a long time to open. I think you may have hit the upper limit...

Upper limit? This is one floor of a private house;) How would a skyscrape do it?
Anyways, when loaded into Autodesk Online Viewer, it loads in 0.1 second and there's no lag, at all
