        That is a little lower than I would expect but it is not completely
        out of line for that machine.

        PAL frams are a little larger (there are fewer of them per second
        so the overall number of frames in a movie is close to the same) by
        576/480 or 20%

        On the Athlon-2800 I just replaced I was seeing approximately 1.5
        frames/sec, sometimes more, sometimes less.  The speed depends on
        the source material and the threshold (-t) setting.   Using 1.5 on
        a Athlon-2800 as a guide I would expect about 1.5 * (1200/2800) 
        on a Athlon-1200 or about .63 720x480 frames/sec.  For PAL a figure
        around .63 * (480/576) or .5 would be about right - maybe a little 
        more/less.

        What type of material were you using and what '-t' setting was being
        used?  If -t is too low then y4mdenoise works a lot harder and takes
        longer - I've found for most VHS sources "-t 4" works well.

        Try using "--with-extra-cflags=xxxxxx" and varying the options - I 
        doubt much effect will be seen (-O2 turns on almost all of the
        important optimizations - maybe -O3 will help).

        As the old saying goes "speed costs - how fast do you want to go?" :-)
