multi-threaded par2

I would like to significantly decrease my parity repair times as i have had times where 100s of GB of stuff is queued to par repair and unrar and parity repair is one thing that could be signfiicantly sped up.

Does anyone know of an actual version that works with sabnzb on linux? I had an old version of par2cmd line and it didn't work right (it would not be able to figure out how many more blocks for recovery, etc...).

So I figured I would see if anyone who actually has it working can tell me what version they use.

Thanks.

I installed libtbb2, then installed multi-threader par2 from http://www.chuchusoft.com/par2_tbb/download.html and made that the active /usr/bin/par2. Did some SABnzbd downloads, and ... it just works.
