Intel SVT-AV1

I wanted to make a thread dedicated to discussing Intel's SVT AV1 encoder, as it seems to be quite good and rapidly improving. I'm seeing fantastic results using fixed QP encoding, though as far as I can tell rate control is pretty basic still.

For example, using fixed QP 44 encoding of a 1080p24 hand drawn animation source, I was able to get very nice looking video (average VMAF of 93.6) at 2.8 Mbps using enc-mode 1 (next to the slowest preset).

Speed is quite good for AV1 - I got 0.2 fps on my i7-7700k. This encoder scales very well and saturated my whole system!

What have others seen?
