They said that in order to achieve the 50% increase in efficiency over VP9, they are willing to accept a 40% increase in decoding complexity and a 5 to 10 times higher encoding complexity than VP9, see:

They also target a release in the first half of 2017 for AV1.
The results on low bitrate VP9 from Netlfix were very interesting. Shows the power of automated testing of quality. Interesting to see what comes of that work. And good that they're offering to do the same with AV1 as part of the development process.
