===> this is not unusual. During compression, the compressor is "learning"
about the file which takes extra time.


===> bottom line: you write to a save file as to any other file, the
only real problem is that you have to compute a checksum for each
block and an overall checksum for the whole file. Chapter 27 of my
eBook goes into some detail about this.
