Takes a Long Time to Save Large Files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Copy and Paste a large amount of text to a python module, or modify one
that is already large eg. 250,000 lines
2. Save the file

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I know this may be an excessively large amount of text but pyscripter
1.9.9.6 could save it in only a few seconds, while pyscripter 1.9.9.7 stops
responding and takes about 5 minutes

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.9.9.7 on windows vista

Please provide any additional information below.
I know this is an extremely large file but this module is only a list that
I use to store a list of words
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/share/dict/web2?rev=1.10.2
.1;content-type=text%2Fplain)

The code is clean and runs instantly with python, no waiting at all so it's
not something you would find on thedailywtf in case you are wondering why
someone would ever have a python script this long.

With the version in SVN it takes a couple of seconds to open the file and a 
similar length of time to save it.
