HS+ Issue w/ Large Files

A friend reported the following bug with HS+

  1. Open a largish file in Homesite+ via RDS
  2. Make a change to the file and hit save
  3. Before the first file is finished saving, open a second file via RDS

When the above happens, there is a chance that one of the files will overwrite the other. This has been confirmed in HS+ 5.5, HS+ 5.2, and ColdFusion Studio 5.0.

I pinged a contact I have on the HS+ 5.5 team who confirmed the issue and opened a bug report for it.

It's important to note that this can occur over FTP, network shares, even local HDD, if the file is large enough. It's just most pronounced over RDS and FTP due to longer save times.
