        char = randomStrings(1e3), stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
myfile <- tempfile()
qsave(x, myfile)
x2 <- qread(myfile)
identical(x, x2) # returns true

# qs support multithreading
qsave(x, myfile, nthreads=2)
x2 <- qread(myfile, nthreads=2)
identical(x, x2) # returns true

# Other examples
z <- 1:1e7
myfile <- tempfile()
qsave(z, myfile)
z2 <- qread(myfile)
identical(z, z2) # returns true

w <- as.list(rnorm(1e6))
myfile <- tempfile()

w2 <- qread(myfile)
identical(w, w2) # returns true
