settings: single pass 980KBits at 512 x 340 compressed with VirtualDub,
basically the XVid codec took 1:05 hr:min to compress; the DivX took nearly
3 hours to compress on the same PC.
The source file was a DV-Avi recording from TV.
When compared side by side the XVid had more natural colour depth of skin
tones and while the DivX was slightly sharper, it also exhibited some
pixelisation, so personally I have to say that the XVid codec won out.
I used the DivX 5.1.1 & the XVid 1.0.-124 (or 1.0.0) codecs.

Your observations are spot on.
