Hey, folks!

I was wondering: Of all the ways in which the Named Variable object can save output (such as an INI or XML file), which is the fastest to save its output?

I am using a Named Variable object to keep track of a screensaver's variables. While I love working with this object, I find that when it saves out to an INI file, it seems pretty slow. (The file must be saved before the screensaver can exit.)

Are there other output formats which save (and perhaps load) faster?

EDIT: As a second thought, is it better to save and load Named Object files using a separate thread?

Thank you for your advice!



Most appreciatively...
