Is there a way to speed up extraction of 40+gb 4k videos? This is by far the most time consuming part of the process and I was wondering if there was any hardware acceleration or even multi cpu way of speeding this up.
My cpu isn’t the newest, it’s an i7 5820k, overclocked just a bit, but I have a hard time believing that a newer cpu on its own will have more than marginal gains on this front, but I could be way off here.
edit: I just realized my processor came out in 2014. So I’m sure in 10 years we’ve made some inroads, I thought I bought this guy in 2018.
tf are you getting 4k torrents that are ziped and why??
It’s usenet, everything is zipped into hundreds of RAR files
The unpack process is usually single threaded, and a stock 5820k is slower than a ryzen 1600 in that case, so you’re probably just running out of CPU performance. My server runs a 6700k and it’s pretty slow to unpack even with nvme arrays
