Bear in mind though that they're post-production codecs, designed to be IIRC a master transfer. 10-bit is especially useful for studios because it keeps more detail. Speed doesn't necessarily matter, quality does. That said, if it's fast, it'll find its uses.

EDIT: Apple's ProRes codec is likely to be fast on Macs, but slow elsewhere.
