Slicing never finishes

I am trying to slice http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1340784 Marble_machine.STL and while the file loads and is displayed, the slicing never finishes. I have waited over an hour several times and slicing never progresses past about 90% reporting that it is generating G-code.

The file is manifold and successfully slices in both Cura and IdeaMaker.

My configuration is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z3gy1LDlHKScnpSDukY5nlZDg0cEJa1G/view?usp=sharing

What can I do differently to successfully slice this in PrusaSlicer?

Update - it did finish! Took maybe 30s to generate the slicing and over 4 hours to create the G-code.

For comparison, Cura and IdeaMaker took less than 60s start to finish of slicing and G-code generation.

RE: Slicing never finishes

I've had this happen and it seemed to be related to a particular printer profile. I deleted the profile and recreated it, then slicing worked OK. I have no idea what the root cause was though as I didn't keep the old profile (20/20 hindsight).
