Saving takes up to 20 seconds

Hi there - I can't find my problem anywhere on this forum, so my apologies if it's already been answered, if it's obvious, or if i'm just being an impatient git...

I'm running Chrilith's latest stable version of ScummVM on my Zodiac 2 to play the scumm games, but saving takes a very long time - up to 20 seconds. This includes autosaving, which means every 15 minutes or so of play is interrupted by a 20-second freeze, and sometimes a crash.

I get the same problem with all the settings turned right down, and with both the Zodiac and Palm OS5 frontends. I think using my overclocking software (Lightspeed) speeds up the saving a little, but I still don't think it should be taking this long.

This is the only problem I'm having with an otherwise fantastic piece of software - many thanks Chrilith.

This newbie would appreciate any help.

Regards, Chris

Actually I think I've got it - I just needed to increase the cache size of my SD card in ScummVM's memory card options.

Knew it'd be simple
