Encoding in realtime is alreaddy extrem fast for the home equipment. 
If you need more speed take a lool that the mjpeg howto section "SMP and
distributed Encoding"
I think you will have to use one the things described to speed up
things. 

BTW: If you use rsh buffer might help.

13fps is alreaddy a niche value. 
If you use filter and scaling the value will drop down. 


auf hoffentlich bald,
