Network transfers have poor performance when Tera is used as copier

Transferring files via network are significantly slower when using tera versus the native windows copier. The issue doesn't exist with others like ultracopier or fastcopy. Over gigabit I will generally top out at 80MB, with most being in the 70s. Native windows can hold a sustained 100MB+.

Been a pro user for years, but doing more and more involving network locations and hate the idea of having to switch.

We are developing a multi-threading feature that will significantly enhance the speed. It is expected to be ready in one or two months.

Will this also affect the single file transfer performance via network? I get the issue even when doing a single large file.

Yes, this approach will also be quicker. The read thread will load the data block, compute its checksum, and then store it in a memory buffer (illustrated as the dark blue blocks in the screenshot), making it readily available for the write thread to use.

Thank you. Hopefully this will hit beta as well.
