The SAVE/RESTORE mechanism isn't always too slow. I use it every time
I print a graphics object.

Be aware that copying an object is non-trivial. What do you do with
references to other objects: copy the reference or copy the object?
The former is, I think, called a shallow copy and the latter is called
a deep copy. There are pitfalls in either case.

But didn't some guy called Coyote write an article about copying
objects?
