Thank you all for your replies.
I have tried the .wdx format, but could not get it to work. I have saved
my data as downvalues of variables ("indexed storage", e.g.
var["1"]=Something, var["2"]=SomethingElse), and not as direct
assignments. I could not find a way that exporting to wdx saved these
assignments.
Any tips on how to Export or Put to a wdx file properly?
So I went with Save instead of DumpSave. What surprised me: The
Save[]-ed file is SMALLER than the DumpSave[]-ed file!!! (96 MB vs. 107
MB). However, it takes much longer to load it back in with Get[] (15 s
vs. 2.5 s).
