Instruments says (for all 7500 files) _NSReadBytesFromFile -[NSData(NSData) writeToFile:options:error:] -[NSFileManager setAttributes:ofItemAtPath:error:] // doing a chmod 420 _NSWriteBytesToFileWithExtendedAttributes My read method -(BOOL)readFromFileWrapper:(NSFileWrapper *)fileWrapper ofType:(NSString *)typeName error:(NSError **)outError (this calls [self setDocumentFileWrapper:fileWrapper]; to save the wrapper) My write method: -(NSFileWrapper *)fileWrapperOfType:(NSString *)typeName error:(NSError **)outError for testing, this simply returns the same wrapper: return documentFileWrapper; If I read in a package with 7500 files, it takes 40-60 seconds to save (note that I an NOT doing save As). _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
