Seriously... If you raise all those settings and update x264 by 500 revisions, of course you're going to get a smaller filesize (or rather, better compression). A year and a half of x264 updates is definitely going to make a difference. On top of that, crf has been adjusted at least a few times over that period. Try again using the same x264 revision (and same settings except for AQ-mode) for both encodes and tell us if you still get the same results.
