X265 2.8 seems much slower

Post by Navvie »

Description of problem or question:
X265 2.8 seems much slower than 2.6.
I'm currently encoding Supernatural Season 1 from my Blu-Ray rips and swapped to the nightly with X265 2.8 and my encode speed has dropped from 5 - 6fps to 1 - 2 fps. Running with NLmeans ultralight to take the edge off the worst of the noise.

Admittedly I'm just running through the episodes in order and the latter episodes might be much more difficult, but I was consistently getting the 5 - 6 fps with X265 2.6, I upgraded mid queue and on resuming the queue I'm now getting 1 - 2 fps.



Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):




HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
20180526224748-1ad2285-master (2018052701)
20180528010119-fd2241a-master (2018052801)



Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
Linux Mint 18.3 Cinnamon 64-bit



HandBrake Activity Log ***required*** (see How-to get an activity log)

The episodes on season 1 discs are all in one play list, I've used mkvtoolnix to split into episodes.

Logs above aren't definitive, it's a small sample I know... but it immediately looked odd. So much so i stopped the encode, re scanned the sources and started again. If I was guessing I'd say nlmeans filter is no longer multi-threaded?

The currently running encode is showing an average fps of 1.25 with 2hrs 28 minutes to go.

Once the queue is done, I'll re-run one of the previous episodes with the same settings with X265 2.8 and post both logs.

Relatively uninteresting given the confounding variables.

Have I done something daft that explains why X265 2.8 is a third the speed of 2.6?

O, Interesting, CPU Instructions are no longer available on your system.

Yeh, your builds configured with no-asm.

Where did you get this build from?

Ha. I looked at those logs a dozen times before posting. Missed that. Second pair of eyes and all...

Hmm, ubuntu PPA exhibits the same. Will figure out why that's turned off.

I'm a Linux noob (Windows/FreeBSD background), I just followed the instructions on the nightly builds page to install for Linux.

The problem has been located. x265 versions > 2.6 now require nasm for assembly optimizations. The nightly build config didn't list nasm as a dependency, so it was getting built without nasm. Problem should be fixed in the next nightly build (which may be a day or 2 away for other unrelated reasons).
