Whish you could benchmark the latest versions of: 1.Teracopy 2.Copyhandler 3.Unstopablecopier 4.FFCopy 5.Fastcopy 6.Supercopier 7.MS Richcopy (new kid on the block, multi-threaded) I've been looking for this info arround but no one seems to have done such a comparative.

The filtering is nice, but I can filter my own copy jobs (sorting by file type always worked for me). The downside is that it bugs out sometimes (pretty rarely in my experience) and doesn’t look like it’s being updated..... really love it. it’s just a simple window (much like Windows’) that is invoked using a right-click-drag.

While I do like Copy Handler, I keep finding myself going back to TotalCopy for its ability to throttle the copy speed instead of outright pausing it and its utter simplicity. Using even its highest throttled setting (5 MB/sec), I can usually get full responsiveness with the other programs I'm using, and to speak of its simplicity: it's just a simple window (much like Windows') that is invoked using a right-click-drag. The filtering is nice, but I can filter my own copy jobs (sorting by file type always worked for me). The downside is that it bugs out sometimes (pretty rarely in my experience) and doesn't look like it's being updated anymore. Anyway, I'm not trying to downplay your review: like I said, I like Copy Handler, but TotalCopy is a nice, simple alternative if you don't mind no more updates.

I've thought about doing a comparison post for these programs, including the 3 you mention, FFCopy, Fastcopy, and Supercopier. If I ever find the time ;) @fr,

BTW Samer, you have copyhandler portable here: http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=366. I was curious about their speed, so I pick one folder with 70 MB and 584 files, and did three quick tests (with unstopablecopier set to "fastest data recovery"): #1 test teracopy - 13 MB/s copyhandler - 9,97 MB/s unstopablecopier - 7,75 MB/s #2 test teracopy - 12 MB/s copyhandler - 11,63 MB/s unstopablecopier - 7,35 MB/s #3 test teracopy - 29 MB/s copyhandler - 23,96 MB/s unstopablecopier - 12,96 MB/s After test #2 every program performed slower, which seems to confirm some users experience, but I was amazed to discover, after reboot (with the same services, processes and +/- the same numbert of threads), I had an increase of + 100% (doublechecked). Awkward ! I think both teracopy, copyhandler and unstopablecopier maybe handy on ocasions because they have different features.
