Battle of the FILE SPLITTERS!

[casvdry]

If you don't know what a file splitting program is, quit reading now. If you do not know how to change file extensions, quit reading now.

Hey all. We all know that uploading videos is a huge part of this site. We also know that it takes time. Time that could be saved doing other things

Unfortunately, being choosy with which ISP you use may not be possible. So you're stuck with whatever upload speed you have. However, you can certainly choose which file splitting program you use!

So, on with the battle of the File Splitters, DUN DUN DUN

Winner by quickest knockout, TheFileSplitter! Simply Amazing! a 700 MB File split in under 30 seconds! Shaving 10 seconds off of programs such as HJSplit.

Honorable Mention: SkarSplit. It's not quite as quick as TheFileSplitter, but it has more features. You can define size profiles that you can name. For example, I can create a profile called Facial Forum and set that to split into 10 MB Chunks. Then just choose the profile on whatever file you want to split. It also can be added to the right-click context menu for ease of use.
