With the exception of the extremes, the relative ratios of the encoding speeds of most presets were almost constant (and the differences among these ratios most probably in a range of random influences, like interrupting kernel tasks).

At least, there is a certain advantage of the MSVC builds. Rather small yet reliable.

What exactly is that ratio percent in the last row? In the first comparison, one encode is faster than the other by 0.83%, which you have called as a 100.83% ratio.

So in all the comparisons, to know by how much one is faster than the other, you have to ignore the "100", and whatever remains is the percentage difference in speed.

Isn't that the relevant metric? By what percent one is faster than the other?
