I sniffed ~ 45000 packets and got 56 MB in a tmp file. I stopped wireshark and
made a "Save as ...". After specifying a file name I saw a popup window like
"Loading ..." for some time before the operation (it's only a rename ?)
finished.
Does wireshark loads the tmp file in the "Save As ..." routine again ? That
would not be neccessary, or ?
