In Addition, if your hard drive is small, and/or nearly full, Windows will be 
shuffling files using the swap file. This takes a lot of time with a full or 
small hard drive.

    Is there any way that the save operation can be speeded up,

  I run WL on a 233 mhz Sony Vaio laptop with 129 meg of memory.  I never have 
a speed problem with any functions, such as file saving, sending CW, DXTelnet, 
etc.  My hunch is that your config with only 32 megs of memory is your problem. 
 I'd suggest upping your memory to its max, and running WL with a minimum of 
other programs running simultaneously.
