Okay, maybe I'm not understanding what insuring does. From what I understood from what you said earlier, it insures when you're saving a modified version of a file, and the insuring process is it copying the original file to a temp directory for safekeeping. Is it copying the *new* file into the temp dir? If so, why?

Besides, to make a move possible, the only thing you could do is save an unmodified document over top of itself quickly, not very interesting. Remember when you save, you likely have changed the data, thus you have a reason for saving.

It has a move command which, if source and target are on the same logical disk, is virtually instantaneous no matter how big the files are. I think it does a rename or something. I'm wondering why SR doesn't do this in cases where both the original file to be insured and the SR temp directory are on the same logical disk. That would certainly make things faster! Obviously if they're on two different logical disks this wouldn't work. The slowest situation would be when the file and the temp dir are on two different partitions on the same physical hard drive.

Your data are being copied to a temporary file before they are written to your saved file. This allows one, for example, to save over top of the file they just opened.
