here is my story so far:
I have experienced that using a wrong codec or color mode can strongly 
affect the cpu. even if you are on a mac, gem does not support all the 
driver features of other mac native programs (as far as I know). the 
fastest codec for me was fotojpeg. uyvy would be the fastest colormode, 
but I think that is not supported on gem too, and not at all on 
non-macs. the apple intermediate codec seems to be almost fotojpeg, but 
if not supported by gem still a codec that has to be reencoded to be 
playable within gem.
otoh that will increase your filesize even more...
marius.
