I have a large file also, going back to the early 1990s. However for me, every time MD makes a backup in the background, the program freezes for 15 or 20 seconds while it's writing and/or encrypting the file. Extremely annoying. I'm on Windows with (obviously) encryption and autosave turned on. What is everyone else running such that they're not getting these pauses? -Jerry On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 10:10 AM, Gordon Alley <[email protected]>wrote: > I also agree.
