HELP with measuring file archiving time

[kwakusa]

Hello

 

I have a personal project to find out witch system will archive files faster, and how much faster. My 2 systems are:

 

CPU: i5-6600K

MB: Asus Z170-P

RAM: Adata 8GB DDR4 2133 MHz

SSD: Adata SU800

 

CPU: AMD FX 8320

MB: MSI 970 GAMING

RAM: Samsung 8GB 4x2 DDR3 1333 MHz

SSD: Adata SU800

 

I am using many archive programs, like 7-zip, WinRAR, PeaZip, ALZip, PowerArchiver, Filzip, jZip...... some are old.

And I want to try archive picture, video, music, text files. And measure with each archive program how fast they can archive my files, and then compare between archive programs and between 2 systems I write.

 

I have problem I really can not find how to measure with high accuracy how fast my files are archiving.

Maybe someone know info and could help me ?

If using timer isn't accurate enough for you (with ~3sec accuracy), you could create script that starts process and timer at the same moment. That way you can get within milliseconds accuracy, which probably is more than what you need to compare two PCs.

try holding ctrl and mouse clicking all the files and folders then right click and select properties

should find archive options(allow files be archived, allow encryption, compress to save space)

then if win 10 click zip button

Why? Other than writing your own tool, there probably isn't anything like that. No one needs to measure archiving speed in that accuracy in real world.

Yes maybe you are right, but I can make .bat tool for WinRAR and 7zip, but not all archiving programs working with CMD like that
