Im working on a MEP model with HVAC services and I was working away and tried to save it but a message popped up and saying 'cannot save this document because duct systems are calculating' Ive found the background processes icon on the status bar to monitor them but cannot cancel them or stop them so I can save my work. very frustrating as its been doing this for over 3 hours now.
Hi, @Anonymous.Erskine You can try disabling the calculations by navigating to DUCT SYSTEMS > DUCT SYSTEM > and select a system and change its calculation option to OFF (or whichever option suits you best). You'll have to do this for each system
I managed to do as you suggested but the background processes were still running even though the system browser and type properties both showed that my calculations were turned off, I ended up just closing out of revit and restarting it and that seemed to work.
@Anonymous Great to hear! Would you mind marking this topic as solved, just so others who may have the same issue in the future can quickly find a solution?
Setting to performance instead of none will actually disable all calculations, none keep doing some calcs.

The answer posted by @Matt__W didn't solve your problem. Please don't mark it as solution and even the subject as solved as you didn't manage to stop background processes but only whole Revit Process.
This question is good and need a real answer. Please leave it open until we get a real answer. @fabiosato solution unfortunately didn't solve it neither in my case.
Update : I wasn't able to save or synchronise manually but somehow it manages to (auto)save after the defined time interval and synchronise when I ask Revit to close. @Anonymous was is the same for you ? If yes, your answer (what you did) is probably actually the best solution to not lose your work.
I had the same problem. I was able to save the drawing by going to the file menu and selecting the close option to close the model. This gave me the option to save and sync with central. Stopped the background process instantly.
Just encountered the same type of problem while editing Ducting and pipings for a Kuwaiti client. Didn't noticed the solution by info, but tried the same process by killing (Fingers crossed) the RevitWorker.exe in Windows Task Manager and it worked. Just now noticed that the solution was already provided by info. Thanks. Kudos.
