Unfortunately, transcoding is a bit of a processor hog. I know that I don’t have to now that the 360 will play DivX and Xvid natively (not sure how this works coming from a mac), but it was a pain in the ass before. Of course, you have a few processors to spare, so it shouldn’t be much of an issue, if it even has to be done.
