Try that code. The meaning of the code has not changed between versions.
But the modes themselves have, so it should log the new mode names even
if the docs are outdated.

(if anyone can confirm its changed values I will happily fix the docs).

It could be a matter of temporal flow.

CPU load is not related to the type of video, but to the amount of work
performed per second. Each event cycle Squid receives, decodes, and
delivers as much as it can.

Squid often runs faster than the data can arrive from the network, so
spends more CPU cycling than strictly necessary. Up to a point the more
traffic you throw at Squid the more efficient it gets.
 Since TLS decoding takes time, it can slow Squid to allow larger chunks
to be received on each cycle.
 Thus on average: few expensive cycles per byte (TLS) vs many cheap
cycles per byte (TCP).

The TLS algorithms may also be hardware accelerated. Meaning no core CPU
load for adding them. Just delay. Which also affects the balance
mentioned above through chunk size.
