Release: SFV Ninja (Simple File Verification application)
f0dder:
My archiving "strategy" requires separate checksum files for each top level folder though, so when creating the files in the first place it's easier to just run up a separate instance per folder :)-stefanobrunesci (September 10, 2012, 05:00 AM)

Hm, seems like a bad idea to run multiple instances at one time, at least for long-running jobs. You'll see much decreased throughput (way worse than linear degradation), and all the back-and-forth action is going to be stressful on your harddrive heads.

If I run 3 instances against folders on 3 separate physical drives it's definitely quicker than running them one after another, and I can go to bed and forget about it ;)
As for the wear on my drives - I figure that's why we have so many backups in the first place! :D

Ah, that's the key. I (and f0dder, I bet) thought you were working with one physical drive. =]

v1.1.4 - 2012-09-22
* No longer writes the Unicode BOM to checksum files.
@Cornucopiae: This version should allow you to use the Unicode version and still generate checksum files that are compatible with non-Unicode apps like QuickSFV.
