> Writing documentation is always a time sink, though, in my experience. Or maybe I'm just not good at it :P It's usually an additional day of work overall, though.

And it saves you days and days of re-discovering truths about your code weeks/months/years down the line. Sometimes those rediscovered facts are not even true which will come bite you big time.

Integrate your documentation with your testing. That makes it easier to create and maintain. You don't have comprehensive automatic tests? Then that's your problem right there.
