32-bit vs. 64-bit Video Processing
hmm...interesting, but I don't really think that you can make an accurate comparison when using 2 different OS's.
you should have used xp pro 32 vs 64 bit or vista 32 vs 64 bit.
I'd think that running any memory inensive process would automatically be at a disadvantage when comparing xp to vista due to the extra ammount of resources that vista uses (and to a lesser extent the gpu requirement of vista vs XP, maybe more of a factor would be the cpu requirement of vista vs xp)
according to this there is quite a significant difference in almost everything between 32-bit versions of XP and Vista (with vista commonly losing out to XP)
Interesting. I am curious how x264 would fare in this comparison.

I guess what I should have asked is "Is there a Win64 version of x264?"
