Batch Converter Overwrite Check Performance in Latest Release
Hello,
It was with excitement that I read in the recent release notes there had been an improvement in performance for the overwrite check step of a batch convert. This has always been terribly slow as your release notes indicate. While I’ve upgraded DBPOWERAMP, I’ve not seen any meaningful measurable performance improvements in the overwrite check doing a batch convert.
My library consists of approximately 130,000 tracks, all as full albums. Each album is in its own directory stored generally as artist\album\track01… The source files are primarily FLAC at redbook or higher along with some DSD files.
To test potential problems with a network source, I copied the full source library to a large local SATA HDD, the performance in this case is worse as the network speed seems much better than the HDD access.
Config:
Source: Synology NAS – 10GB Wired Connection to Computer.
Computer: 36 Core (72 logical) Xeon Workstation – Windows 11
Destination: High Performance PCI-attached Local Internal SSD – The destination directory contains about 80% of the source library already converted so the conversion check needs to select the files for conversion based on what is not already in the destination.
Am I missing something or is there more work to be done here?
Regards,
C2
