Some things might be similar, like m/s choice, block type decision, but the
bit allocation is diffinitively different, as the number of bits available
is different and frequency distribution is different due to filters.

So yes, you'll probably gain something like 5-10%, but I personnaly think
that it's not enough to justify an heavy code modification.
