Default Faster editing

I'm in a new legal department in which stacks of documents (some small, some
quite large) with heavy edits are expected to be finished in short order;
e.g., 20 documents in 4 hours. Most of the wonderful things you've taught me
over the years will not be called upon--just move 'em in, move 'em out!

In my previous position, there was a lot of original input and formatting.
Since I type 120, more or less, that was easy, and the present department
probably thought I'd be just as fast at making corrections and edits. But
that turns out not to be true, because when I proof these documents I find
that I've missed edits---and that's my problem.

My question is: do some of you out there have a "system" for the most time
effective way of proofing a heavily edited/corrected document? Proof as you
go? Print out and proof? Relax my standards? Get more sleep?

Thanks again for all you do!
