I finally did a TMPGEnc DVD encode last night using Xp Pro with an Athlon XP 2100, 386DDR. I know, I'm bragging.. Anyways, from my lesson from upgrading from an 850MHz Athlon to a 1.4G I wans't really expecting much of a speed boost, 15%-20% at best. I set the encoder last night before I went to bed and was expecting it to be done by the time I got home from work the next day. Wake up in the morning, it had encoded LOTR in 6hrs11mins! I was pretty sure I had screwed up somewhere and checked the settings and they were as I had left them, 2pass VBR, 10bit precision and highest quality and at full res. Is this just a fluke or does the combo of my new sys really perform that well?

It isn't XP, it's your 2100 and 386DDR that did the "wonders". I got 1900+ and 512DDR and get about the same for your settings, so it's pretty normal.

Encoding speed is (mostly) related to your CPU speed. XP has NOTHING to do with it.
