100% cpu and taking forever to repair

As of late, when sabnzbd tries to repair files, it uses 100% cpu and takes forever to complete the task. most of the time it fails too.
I downloaded a 7 gb file and it took 13 hours to finally repair. This has not happened in previous versions of sab as far as i can remember.

i've got a 3.2 ghz dual core processor with 5 gb ram. win 7 pro 64 bit.

does anyone know what might cause this?

thanks in advance :)

Bugs in the multi-core pa2r program or RAM which is almost but not quite OK.
You can go back to the "classic" par2 program by setting Config->Special->par2_multicore off
