As per recent discussions on the various channels, NZBGet and SAB are looking to implement advanced CPU features to speed up article decoding.  While I don't know whether this is applicable for Alt.Binz, I thought it might be worth adding this to the request list in case the code can be ported to Alt.binz?

On a related note, a lot of people are saying that animetosho's parpar is not only quicker for creating par2 files, but also quicker for decoding - again, not sure whether his code is suitable for implementation into Alt.Binz but I thought I would make the suggestion anyway please.

More info on this reddit thread about it:

Thanks in advance.
