Does it also happen with all plugins and customizations disabled?

gvim -N -u NONE -U NONE -i NONE

One possible candidate, if you have a plugin doing a lot of regex or something when you save and quit, is that the newer versions of Vim are using a new regex engine. :help 'regexpengine'. The new engine is currently a lot slower than the old, although Vim should still not "hang" when using it.

Also, did you try CTRL-C while Vim is "frozen"?
