Its's only using about 40% of my processor, saving over a network using 12.5% of total bandwidth. From a 16x pioneer dvdrom (flashing, seems to have lots of speed left in it). I'm doing a title with 5% compression in the main title and stills in the extras. With french & spanish audio removed. This normal? Shouldn't the program be using 100% of my processor? This is my first backup, seems idiot proof :D love it.

Think about it.

DVDShrink is making a backup in about 25 minutes. It's reading ~8 BG and writing ~4½ GB.

DVDDecryptor takes nearly that long (~20 minutes) to copy the DVD from DVD ROM to hard drive.

DVDShrink is almost as fast as just copying the files. It's reasonable to assume that DVDShrink is IO bound - the processor isn't working at 100% because the program can't get data fast enough.

though it could have been one of the DVDShrink clones
