From the article here “The difference in speed between OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard is remarkable. I did two tests in the latest version of Final Cut Studio’s (3) Compressor. I took a 33-second clip NTSC (720 x 480, 29.97 frames per second/fps) and converted it to a similar .m2t (MPEG-2 Transport Stream), which I have to convert video clips to at work. The results:
- With Mac OS X Leopard: 26 seconds
- With Snow Leopard: 18 seconds”
