--- Comment #51 from John <[email protected]> ---
I monitored what is happening in \temp during a file open, an edit, and a Save. 

I set \temp to a 32GB USB memory stick to slow things down.  AOO would not open
when I set \temp to the diskette drive nor to a very old, slower 128 MB USB
memory stick.  I recorded with FreeCam.

1.  Open MyDocuments\fred.odt 468kB.

2.  AOO writes many temporary files to \temp, each deleted before the next is
written, as below:
svc8appm.tmp   2kB
svc8asg5.tmp   1kB
svc8uaog.tmp   2kB
svc8awg9.tmp   2kB
svc8aypu.tmp   2kB
svc8b0wu.tmp 468kB timestamped 14:26

>From previous testing I know svc8b0wu.tmp is an exact copy of fred.odt. 

3.  Make a few edits to fred.odt.  Nothing changes in \temp as expected.

4.  Click Save icon.

\temp has only svc8b0wu.tmp 468kB timestamped 14:26

AOO adds svc8bhyz.tmp   0kB

AOO adds svc8bk4o.tmp  36kB and then increases it to 1,805kB.  

AOO deletes svc8bhyz.tmp and svc8bk4o.tmp

AOO adds svc8bvu4.tmp 468kB timestamped 14:28

AOO deletes svc8b0wu.tmp.

\temp now has only svc8bvu4.tmp 468kB timestamped 14:28.  The file is deleted
and AOO closes.  MyDocuments\fred.odt 468kB is now timestamped 14:28 suggesting
it is a copy of svc8bvu4.tmp. 

I may have missed some files being created and deleted.  I tried to copy the
36kB file but I could not do it quickly enough and Windows said it had gone.

I wondered if svc8bk4o.tmp, which gets to be 3.5x bigger than fred.odt, could
be where the nulls are written in cases where .odt files are full of null
characters.
