[mythtv-users] mythDVD encoding times

I just wanted to see if I could get some idea of what to expect for
encoding dvd's and the time it takes depending on CPU speeds.  I have an
athlon 2600+ but it takes about 1hr 50 minutes to encode a 90 minute dvd
at the "excellent" setting.  

If anyone else uses mythtv's transcode feature, what times do you get
for excellent, good, and medium?  (Perfect is a raw dvd rip, and takes
about 20 minutes on a 4x dvd drive for me).
