I just did a fresh, clean install of Windows 8 from 7 and I've had horrible issues with SABnzbd unpack times. On a 300MB test download, it took me 1:08 while 3 users with comparable hardware it took 1-5 seconds. I've also noticed that I no longer see the PAR2/UNRAR processes running in the task manager. CPU spikes are non-existent(Max was 4% for a torrent program)
Steps I've tried so far
-Turned of all anti-virus software
-Putting both the incomplete/complete folders on my main SSD
-Putting a fresh install on a separate SSD with both folders there
-Different NZBs
-Downgrading with fresh installs to 0.7.13 and 0.7.12 with the above steps
Tonight I'm going to try it on Ubuntu server, Windows 7 and Windows 8 in VMWare Workstation and see what results I get. Also, the SABnzbd logs state that its accessing UNRAR, UNZIP, etc with no issues.
Anyone have anything else I could do?

Re: Unpack issue Windows 8
FIXED: For anyone that's upgrading from Win7 to Win8, do NOT copy your ini file over the new one in an attempt to save your settings. Apparently they are different and will not work. Manually re-input everything and it works fine.
