FME Desktop 2020.0.0.0: The “clipper” tool fails to proceed and gets stuck,

 

I couldn’t figure out why the “clipper” tool fails to proceed and gets stuck,

 

What could be the issue here?

 

The workbench and data are attached

Clip_1339 

Clip_1336 

Clip_1337

The vast majority of your geometries are Arcs, these are represented as a mathematical equation rather than a series of vertices.

After the geometry validator, add an ArcStroker to convert the arcs into lines. The process then runs in ~6 seconds

It works like a charm.

 

However, I couldn’t figure out what the ArcStroker has fixed!

The ArcStroker inperpolates vertices along the arc convert the true curve into a standard line
