Agree, that's why I didn't pursue the idea as well. The way things are 
done via truezip (constantly rolling over the contents of the zip file) 
makes it dead slow for large files. The zip file really should be 
'mounted' on a scratch disk (or at least the portion that is being used) 
and 'unmounted' upon closing the FS.
