No way h264 will be faster on CPU than Cineform or ProRes.
Remember that with Cineform you can drop resolution to 1/2 or 1/4 and then it needs to decode just HD or half HD in case of UHD (not only that- it even reads proportionally less data from the disk).
Yes, as mentioned in the OP, it's all done in hardware.

How do you drop the resolution in CineForm on the timeline while maintaining full resolution export?
