If you're talking about H.264 accelerators in the general sense, it can be.
CompressHD is many times (yes MANY TIMES) faster than an 8 core QuickCluster.
Tested on early 2008 8 core 2.8GHz MacPro with 8 GB RAM
I tested with 1080p30 XDCAM EX .mov file running 10:58. I was down scaling it to 720p at 5000kbps. To get a full measure of the impact I encoded without Qmaster, 4 instances, 8 instances and finally CompressHD codec. Sans Qmaster took 37:40, 4 instances 31:53, 8 instances 26:58. CompressHD burned through it in 8:40. That's 3 times faster than 8 instances.
I'm not sure of the Turbo264 but if it's even half as fast as CompressHD it'll surpass 8 cores.
