"Our testing shows AV1 surpasses its stated goal of 30% better compression than VP9, and achieves gains of 50.3%, 46.2% and 34.0%, compared to x264 main profile, x264 high profile and libvpx-vp9, respectively.
"However, AV1 saw increases in encoding computational complexity compared with x264 main, x264 high and libvpx-vp9 for ABR mode. Encoding run time was 9226.4x, 8139.2x and 667.1x greater, respectively…"
