Looks like Mark caught it. Without the parentheses, the engine
interprets the above as:
1. get url "binfile:"
2. append that data with filepath
3. store it in the specified property
But with parens it first concatenates the "binfile:" and filepath into a
single string that's then used as the source for the URL.
All I can add to Mark's excellent sleuthing is some extra credit:
You can save about 30% or more on average by compressing the data before
storing it:
set the storedStack of stack "updatelist" to \
compress( url ("binfile:" & filePath) )
To spit it back out just reverse the order of the operations:
put decompress( the storedStack of stack "updatelist" \
unto url ("binile:" & someNewPath)
