Well, I'd finished the builds on the up-to-date system, so I looked
to see what I could quickly come up with.  The following script is
somewhat pointless - it reencodes big_buck_bunny to a smaller file,
but using the x265 codec.  It's just the first thing that came to
hand.  Run 5 times, after each run remove the output file and drop
caches.

time ffmpeg -i ../big_buck_bunny.mp4 -c:v libx265  -preset medium -x265-params 
crf=28 -c:a aac -strict experimental bunny.mp4

(I'm sure mailers can wrap that :)

What is surprising is that I've now booted with 'nopti' and the
_older_ firmware, expecting I might see a speed up - but it actually
slows down!

        New fw, PTI     Old fw, nopti
        10.961s         11.425s
        10.934s         11.130s
        10.999s         11.056s
        10.959          11.129s
        10.981s         11.051s

I repeat that this isn't a useful test, just a quick one.  Perhaps
figures for real-world use of ffmpeg might differ.
