[x264-devel] Another CPU related question

Hi,

Since my innocent SSE3 questions spurned some replies, I tought I should ask
another questions.

The Cell cpu from IBM/Sony el, the PPU is some sort of PPC and according to
what I read, PPC software should be recompilable and able to run on the
Cell. Albeit without using the SPU's, and according to different
presentations and concept proofs etc, the Cell with SPU is a streaming
device ie it can use the SPU's to offload bits of work.

There has been some articles about it being able to decode 48 mpeg2 streams
at once or something like that, so then to my question, do you belive it
would be able to show similar kind of performance in encoding?
