For the old version, it's:
tool_lameenc.exe" --nohist -q 0 -b 320 --resample 44.1 --add-id3v2 --tt "Theme from 'Antarctica'" --ta "Vangelis" --tl "The Best Of Instrumental Works" --ty 2008 --tc "Encoded with LameXP" --tn 1 --tg "Instrumental"
So you are using ultra slow placebo encoder settings and then you complain about speed?

I can re-produce that the "new" version indeed is noticeably slower than the "old" version when using these ultra slow placebo settings!

Of course both versions are SLOW with such settings. So try to use something more sane, like "-q 2", which is equivalent to "-h".

(It is the "LAME Algorithm Quality" slider that you want to adjust)

Yes, normal and desirable

CPU usage is the percentage of time that your CPU is working, i.e. not sleeping (waiting for I/O).

When encoding, you want your CPU to sleep as few as possible, right? ^^
