Great! Can't wait for the next release.
lol I think we were on the wrong page before. FYI, the article you posted seems to suggest that my problem was on a machine that had a Phenom II X4 960T and 'plenty of RAM.' My initial problem was actually on the Phenom X3 with 4 gbs of ram and a SSD. Please look at my original post. I originally asked if saving time would increase if I bought the new components in question.
Otherwise, I got good news!
I finally put together my new system, 8 GB of Ram.
I'm glad to say there was a fair improvement in saving time, as well as opening time.
Here is what happened on the old system:
16 sec to open
23 sec to save
Now on the new system:
4 sec to open
7 sec to save
