<h2><a name="description">Description</a></h2>
<p>When FASTTEMPFILES is active, MHonArc will use non-random
temporary filenames.
</p>
<p>When MHonArc creates, or edits, an archive file, MHonArc first
writes to a temporary file. If no errors occur, the temporary file
is then renamed to the appropriate archive filename. For security
reasons (like to avoid local symlink attacks), MHonArc generates
random filenames for temporary files. This operation does
increase the overhead of temporary file creation. The overhead is
generally negligable, but if processing a large set of files and
performance is a primary concern, you can enable FASTTEMPFILES to
avoid the random filename creation. </p>
<p>If you want to enable FASTTEMPFILES, but are concerned about
security, make sure that the archive directory and file permissions
are set to only allow write access to trusted users.
