From what I experienced while using both - Copy Handler handles the copy process much smoother (and faster). Plus it's open source.. :) Maybe later on you could incorporate part of their code into the copy process in CubicEx. Cheers, m^e Found another one similar to TeraCopy called Copy Handler.

TeraCopy did speed-up the copies, although not by a very large margin... but still :) And keep up the good work. Been silently following the progress on your software for a long time. It's gradually maturing into a great piece of work with the perfect blend of features. Cheers, m^e Thanks man..

I have plans to write a copy manager with multi thread and custom buffer size support. In the mean while, you could use <a href="http://www.codesector.com/teracopy.php" rel="nofollow">TeraCopy</a> (or similar) for better performance.

This is something I've noticed in all the versions since 0.8.x. The file copy occurs at a MUCH SLOWER rate than it does when using Windows Explorer. Is it some buffer related issue or due to some hidden API calls used by WinExplorer? The problem is further compounded when you try to perform multiple copies at the same time. WinEx handles that without any hiccups... but in CubicEx, the file copy op which starts later HAS to finish first, before the control is handed back to the op which was started first. Only then, it completes.. These two cannot occur parallely.. Any ideas why? Thanks, m^e One more issue.. This is something I’ve noticed in all the versions since 0.8.x.

CubicEx kept crashing everytime I tried to start it and kept showing me the Restart / Bug Report dialog in an endless cycle. It only started up properly once I deleted 3 config files, namely - layout.xml, settings.xml and sessions.xml. Just so you know ... :) Cheers, m^e Hey there,

At the end however, the build number is the only one that matters. I guess I should use something like 0.90 RC2 development, just so there isn’t any confusion.
