But then again, shooting myself in the face sounds better than returning to the dark ages of MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile.

I believe it was settled back then that GMC and QPel were fancy techniques that in the end did not do much for compression in the end. I remember playing around with some custom matrixes that helped more than they did but of course custom matrixes WERE NOT supported by all players, goddamn you MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile.
