# MultiPar
v1.3.2.0 is public
v1.3.2.1 is public
  This is a beta version to test new encoder & decoder.
I implemented a way of Cache Blocking for CPU's L3 cache optimization.
It will calculate multiple blocks at once on multi-Core CPU.
Old method calculated each block independently,
and could not avail the advantage of shared memory.
New method may use shared L3 cache more often, and will be fast on recent PCs.
  This includes some bug fix and a sample of new feature.
I found a problem in my old code, and fixed them.
Because they are 32-bit version PAR2 client and PAR1 client, nobody saw them for long time.
Thanks [Safihre for finding the bug](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/55).
  Thanks [prdp19 and Slava46](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/47) for many tests.
Thanks [Anime Tosho](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/21) for some idea and advice.
Also, other users aided my development.
Without their help, I could not perform this speed improvement.
I changed some behavior of handling invalid filenames on Windows OS.
In previous version, those bad filenames were sanitized automatically.
But, it might be strange and confused users of other OSes.
Thanks [Danilo for reporting the issue](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/58).
Now, this version warns such incompatible filenames only.
Because it's difficult to rename some bad fileanames on Windows Explorer,
I made a simple tool to rename invalid filenames, too.
The [tool "Rename7" is available on my GitHub page](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/Rename7).
  While new version seems to be faster on most cases,
it may happen to be slow for a few blocks.
Though I don't know the speed on old PCs, it may not become slow.
If you see a failure or strange result, please report the incident with ease.
I will try to solve as possible as I can.
  I adjusted CPU usage slider for CPUs with many Cores.
Now, each position will set different number of threads always.
Left most : 1/4 of CPU cores
One from left : 2/4 of CPU cores
Middle : 3/4 of CPU cores
One from right : 4/4 of CPU cores, or use one less threads on CPU with 6 or more Cores.
Right most : May use one more threads on CPU with 5 or less Cores.
  I improved calculating hash of multiple source files.
From my testing result, I changed default number of threads for NVMe SSD.
When you use a raid-system or external drive, it cannot detect the drive type.
If it fails to detect, it uses HDD mode by default.
At MultiPar options, it's possible to change the setting manually.
You may select one of them; HDD, SSD, or Fast SSD.
Caution, you should not select SSD, if your using drive is HDD.
Some [users requested a queue repair feature](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/57) ago.
I didn't make such utility, because there were some tools for the usage.
But, it seems to be old, or it's not updated so much.
So, I implemented a feature to repair multiple PAR2 recovery sets in queue.
Currently, it's a simple tool and will be changed more.
If a user is interested in the feature,
please read "Command_Queue.txt" in "help" folder.
Because it's sample, there may be a problem or fault.
I will improve later, when users tested the behavior.
