[XviD-devel] mulithread rework

[Jason Garrett-Glaser]

>  On of the forums, it claims to be very scalable (almost 100%). Let's see if it's true. (Although being really scalable doesn't mean that it goes faster than regular encoding method, if it is slower, It'll outperform the older method by having more cores)

It is extremely scalable; x264's threading method has proved effective
on 16-core systems with up to 24 or 32 threads.  "Effective" means
that "16 cores are for all intents and purposes 16 times faster than
1".
