The following figures shows encoding time required to encode a 8:05 minutes stereo song (using a Pentium III 600MHz).
The following figures shows encoding speed for the same audio file and processor.
An encoding speed of 1 means that the time to encode a file is equal to its time length. An encoding speed superior to 1 decrease the encoding time with the given factor. For example, an encoding speed equal to 10 allows to encode a file 10 times quicker that the time length of this audio file.
