FTP from shell = high CPU usage

[iDunk]

Hello,

I registered on the forum to report a couple of problems I've been having with Powerarchiver 2012 Professional.

I am glad to see that the first problem has already been taken care of, namely, the hanging of PASTARTER.EXE introduced with 13.01.03 - fixed in 13.01.04.

The second problem is high CPU usage when using "FTP It..." shell extension. I made a few PA backup scripts which make encrypted 7z archives, copy these archives to two other locations (nice feature), and then FTP these archives to a remote FTP server (another nice feature). All is well, with regard to CPU usage, when PABackup.exe is doing the FTP file transfer, but when I right-click a file and click an FTP profile the CPU usage of POWERARC.EXE doing the file transfer goes way up - maxing out a core if I set process affinity to just one core. I cannot tell you when this problem started since I have not been using this feature for long, and I only noticed this summer due to high revving CPU fan.

Hopefuly this is something that can be fixed in a future release.

Best regards,
