The MUS files are compressed, while the temp files (if I remember correctly) are uncompressed swap files towards Btrieve. Anyway, temporary files would make sense on computer systems 5- 10 years ago, where a typical setup would be 16MB RAM. However, today's computers have much much more memory than that, and I really think Finale should be a bit more up-to-date and at least include an option to not use temp files (=handle all things in RAM instead, which would also be faster). I'm going to send in a feature request about that today!
