I'm curious how much faster it is running on a dual core machine, it has the option to test it with MT enabled and disabled for comparison.
 
I just tested it by compressing a 16MB .mpg file using RAR with Best compression. With MT enabled, it took just over 11 seconds. With MT disabled, it took a little more than 15 seconds. I ran both tests twice. I'm running an x2 4200+.
 
im running some tests now, will report back in a bit.

update:
wow, i'm very impressed.

Zipped a 151mb .avi:

WinRAR 3.51 - 2:04
WinRAR 3.6 - 1:18

37% increase in speed!

I have a sudden urge to consume FujiFilm products. 😉

The benchmarks resulted in aboot 674 vs 527 KB/s, for a 28% improvement with MT on a P3600 HT. Nice.
