For the record, when comparing qtblend with the current version of 
frei0r.cairoblend, I get the following improvements (using Qt5.7):

When no compositing is necessary (no alpha transparency):

compositing video above color clip: 25% speed gain
compositing video above another video: 42% speed gain

When performing a compositing (lighten):

compositing video above color clip: 28% speed gain
compositing video above another video: 24% speed gain
