Don't know if this is a known issue.
Playing latest test build, 2018-10-27.
After about turn 200 or so sometimes after you hit the turn button the game just stops.
It's not frozen or locked. The mouse still works and you can exit the game normally.
It just goes to the AI's turn processing and never finishes.
I've tried waiting for more than a half an hour to see if it would finish but it didn't.
Normally even after several hundred turns it only takes a few seconds for a turn to finish.
Exiting the game and restarting and loading a save game fixes the issue.
Seems to happen more often the more turns you play.
Let me know if there is any more info I can give you.
Game Stalls

Re: Game Stalls
I'm gonna guess it is because an AI was defeated on that turn (i.e. you get an empire defeat sitrep the turn your game stalls when pressing next turn). It's a recent bug, not addressed yet.
The workaround is to exit and reload that turn. Then it will continue as normal when you press next turn.

Re: Game Stalls
Pretty sure that is not it. Not that many AI's in the game.
After a while it will do it every 5 to 10 turns.

Re: Game Stalls
Then you'll need to provide save game and all logs for the people to figure out what's going on.
My current game (compiled from source this week) is not stalling except for the mentioned defeated AI bug, and I'm well past turn 200.

Re: Game Stalls
I've encountered your bug. Game stalled right after I conquered an AI.
I'm going to keep playing until I get a stall without that condition.
Continued playing. Only got one other stall, but that was again after
conquering an AI. I did notice after the turn button returned to being
black and it saved my auto save when I opened the menu to save the
game manually the save button was greyed out. Hitting turn then
caused the game to stall.

Re: Game Stalls
I think when current game state has been (auto) saved, it won't allow you to do another save until you change something (like the focus of a planet, the order of your production queue, etc.).
