Hi All, Appears that bitstream packing is also one of the most CPU hungry operations in SBC encoder, which did not get proper attention yet. Could somebody review this patch and provide feedback/comments? Benchmarks were done by running the following script: ./sbcenc -s 8 big_buck_bunny_480p_mono.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -s 8 big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -s 8 -j big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -s 4 big_buck_bunny_480p_mono.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -s 4 big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -s 4 -j big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -b 128 -s 8 big_buck_bunny_480p_mono.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -b 128 -s 8 big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -b 128 -s 8 -j big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -b 64 -s 4 big_buck_bunny_480p_mono.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -b 64 -s 4 big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null ./sbcenc -b 64 -s 4 -j big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.au > /dev/null Times from ARM device (ARM11): before patch: real 9m 42.98s user 8m 51.06s sys 0m 39.50s after patch: real 6m 35.55s user 5m 44.09s sys 0m 40.43s Times from x86 PC (Intel Core2): before patch: real 0m49.437s user 0m45.267s sys 0m3.708s after patch: real 0m27.606s user 0m23.869s sys 0m3.656s Best regards, Siarhei Siamashka
