VP8 has recently attracted a lot of interest after it was owned by
Google. As you know, on May 2010, the WebM Project was launched,
featuring contributions from "Mozilla, Opera, Google and more than
forty other publishers, software and hardware vendors" in a major
effort to use VP8 as the codec for HTML5.

As one of appendixes to the annual H.264 comparison report
an additional VP8 encoder vs. x264 encoder comparison was presented.

We have tested VP8 encoder and compare its encoding quality and
speed with x264.

The final report contains all RD-curves, bitrate handling analysis and
speed/quality graphs. Six different VP8 presets were tested which
were chosen with the help of VP8 developers (so those were VP8
developers guided settings).
