Thank you for your assurances.  I have installed the test version (5.2.2.1.).  The installation went smoothly, and my backups were listed.  I will use it on Friday for my testing.

By the way, I discovered by accident that you can quote from posts here without the intermediate to copy and paste to Notepad step.  I noticed that the "dots" I was seeing when I tried to paste, were not dots, but very, very small type.  Instead of using Ctrl-V to paste, I used Ctrl-Shift-V and it worked perfectly.

Have a great day.

Regards,
Phil

The 2 PCs I have run the tests on previously are a 12thGen Intel i5 desktop and a 13thGen Intel i7 laptop.
Both of these CPUs have a mix of Performance and Efficiency cores. Its up to the thread director to allocate which cores perform which tasks.

I thought I would try the same tests on an older laptop with a  8thGen i7. This just has 4 regular cores with hyperthreading.

V5425:
Backing up to an internal SSD took 2m40s
Backing up an ext USB HDD took 6m14s

V5521:
Backing up to an internal SSD took 2m43s
Backing up an ext USB HDD took 6m14s

The external USB HDD was the same 2TB Toshiba device i have used in all my previous tests.
As you can see above, the backup times are now virtually identical between the 2 versions of Hasleo.

So, could my previous results be down to the way the cores are being allocated on 12th and 13th gen Intel CPUs?

I vaguely recall that you mentioned in another forum thread that you were developing  using AMD based PCs which don't currently feature the mix of Performance and Efficiency cores like recent Intel devices do.

Anyway, food for thought.

To consolidate the comparisons, I am repeating repeating my previously-posted MR8 and ETBH results, so it is all in one post.

There was an impressive reduction in the HBSP Check Full Image time from 31:35 three weeks ago, to today's testing time of 15+ minutes.
HBSP is now outperforming ETBH, but it is still not as fast as MR8.

My congratulations to the HBSP development team.  Hasleo Backup Suite Pro is now really competing with the "big guys." 👍  It is a serious competitor in the imaging software market, according to my testing.  I have every confidence that HBSP will continue to evolve and enhance its performance and features as resources permit.

Have a great day.
