this seems like you're trying to imply that MSVC does not have a profiling and optimization feature like ICL/ICC/GCC,
which is untrue as MSVC does have PGO (Profile Guided Optimization)...
i only recall the feature only being in the professional/team versions and not the express/free ones though.

x264 is easier to profile as it's an executable, so you only need to provide a file to work with and it can profile.

avisynth profiling would be more complex as you need to supply both a script and a program to profile avisynth with...
not to mention going through all the code paths would also be a pain.
