CPU Benchmark

Updated whenever I can.

Note: HandBrake don't scale well with more than 32 threads. As a result, this benchmark does not measure the true performance of servers having 32+ cores.

Encoding a 2h video (live concert from Japanese TV, MPEG-2, dark scene with grain) at 1280x720 resolution.
