I do not understand this. Moving a file, on almost all file systems, is
almost free in terms of cpu and disk usage. And it is an atomic
operation, which has the advantage that the file is only available in
its final destination when it has been fully transfered.
I think the current implementation makes sense.
I would be interested to hear what the original poster meant by
"As I can see from the code, there is room for improvements". This seems
to imply there are obvious speed ups, which would indeed be nice to put
in place...
