The multi thread works, but it will call the cls-precomp.exe instead of cls-precomp_x64.exe

The compressing time reduced a little bit, and the result is 4% smaller?
Which doesn't seem to be right, multi thread should only reduce time not result size.
When try to unpack the result, it says
ERROR: archive structure corrupted (decompression of control block failed)Press any key to continue . . .

Reproduce:

You've misunderstood it. There's no Precomp with multiple threads. The Magic is in the "cls-precomp.dll" file.

CLS file for FreeArc is something like a DLL file for Windows OS. Remember that when you use a CLS file, you shouldn't declare a method similar to CLS name in the arc.ini. In your case, it shouldn't be the method name of the "precomp" in your arc.ini for both compression and decompression.

It finally says that you don't need the configuration file (arc.ini) for CLS files (Some CLS files require their own configuration file (cls-precomp.ini).
