Right now I run an Intel core 2 duo 6600 and when running shrink, the task manager says I am using 100% of both cores ability. Man, I tell ya shrink is mighty resources hungry (kinda like me and the greensman at a good buffet, LOL)

How long is it taking you to transcode?
As I won't go under 75%, the transcoding process with aec and deep analysis is about 20 inutes more or less. So I get a cup of iced coffee (decaf, hey it's summer) and enjoy life.
Get a 2nd computer does'nt have to be anything flash just something to continue surfing etc,the downside of coarse is you'll use that one to rip as well so your back to square one :p
