And stop top posting FFS.

See this: http://www.idallen.com/topposting.html

On memory usage: This depends on the decoder(s) in use, the filter
chain(s) in the command line and their syntax (which is why the tee
muxer is recommended so you can re-use inputs and encoder outputs, see
http://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Creating%20multiple%20outputs#Teepseudo-muxer
for a quick primer).

Being able to re-use encode outputs and inputs can significantly lower
memory and CPU usage overheads.
