The reason for using named pipes is speed, not disk space.

Reading the import directly from a pipe is much faster then writing to disk and then reading the same data from disk. It doesn't matter now anyway, I've discovered that it cannot be done on windows. Yet another Windoze limitation. It's ridiculous.
