Frank Klemm put up a new version 0.90i of his custom MPC encoder. No word on the changes over 0.90f, but it's a little faster for me.
This encoder is still in early development stages... use it with care and please report any bugs to [/a] (use a real name and a valid e-mail address).

...and the same question again (but maybe forgotten):
why two executables ???
The two versions apparently have different speed optimizations for AMD or Pentium class processors. I'm using a PIII 850 MHz and V2 is faster for me... On first tests, i get 5.8x with V1 and 6.0x with V2.
Here's a quote from Frank Klemm off the board at http://www.chaostar.org/phorum (http://www.chaostar.org/phorum):
On some machines V1 is faster (Athlon?), on other V2 (P2, P3?).
There's currently no 3DNow! or SSE code in it, but the Athlon
dislikes unordered memory accesses, the P3 math operations.
Although a bit OT, the good news is that if there is no 3DNow! or SSE in it, then it's likely that another fairly decent jump in speed is possible when this gets added in
Silly question: What's the advantage of Fran Klemm's encoder over Buschel's mppenc?

Advantages of this Encoder:
ca. 35% faster
support of 8 . . . 32 bit linear PCM
can encode also encode 1 channel files and multi channel files (only first two channels are encoded)
support of directly reading LPAC lossless compressed PCM files
support of directly reading FLAC lossless compressed PCM files
Can directly read from a pipe (max. 27 hours of audio possible)
Support of WAVE files with 2...4 GByte (if file system supports this)
some minor bug fixes (which do NOT affect audio quality)
smoother fade in and out
support of very verbose -v -v
