This is a long standing bug or more anomaly of TVAI with Apple Silicon. For SD material you should set RAM to 10% and the hardware will be used much better and the encode going faster.

This is a SD → FHD upscale here on my M2 Ultra with Iris and RAM set to 85%:

Bad hardware utilization and slow encode (5fps).

The exact same task just with RAM set to 10%:

Resources much better used and about double the speed.

If you look at his details it is the same person, email address and same IP address for both user names.
