Thanks for the advice guys, looks like I'll be picking up a 1210 soon.

i hope youre not gonna get the 1210 just because of my results here

these results are from late 2006 early 2007.. now there are better controllers for about same $ the 1210 is

Did a run with one copy of the Matrix Reloaded...1 min 4 secs...default clocks and lousy CPU usage (25% at most). Tried to do 2 at once, and both were flying at about the same rate as the first when both choked and DVDShrink crashed saying there wasn't enough memory

16GB of memory and a 32 GB swap file, and there's not enough...riiiiiiight. I hate Vista. I think when I move to Velociraptors, I will definitely be going back to XP x64...

When both DVDShrinks were running I was still only seeing about 50% usage at most.

Very strange...

yeh strange indeed.. you should be seeing around:
100 / 8 = 12.5 x 3 = 37.5% @ 1x dvdshrink
37.5 x 2 = 75% @ 2x dvdshrink

vista sure does handle dvdshrink differently than xp

see if u can set more than 2 processor affinity @ task manager under processes tab for dvdshrink

though if i compare my 2min27sec @ 4.2GHz (3cores) vs your 1min4sec @ 3.2GHz (2cores) most of the work was still done by the storage system/s

1min4sec: i take it that was deep analysis + encoding ?

nonetheless freakn fast!!

LOL @ not enough mem u need to upgrade nuts!

[lutjens]

Nope...no deep analysis prior to the backup...just did one and was doing approx 2400 fps...

youre very close to my 2min27sec if you do deep analysis+encoding

every single main movie to DVD-5 result.. all dual/quad-core results ive posted in the thread here were done by deep analysis+encoding @ dvdshrink.. advanced analysis+encoding @ nero

before each dvdshrink run ive deleted any analysis results files here, always


i followed and ive stuck to the way eva2000 did it here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=107518

so if you want to better compare run deep analysis+encoding

but nonetheless still freakn fast since your 3.2GHz 2cores is as fast as my 4.2GHz 3cores
