Is HEVC (8-bit)/AAC a good, modern CODEC combination for rebuilding & reducing my library size without compromising quality? Helpful feedback would be appreciated.

A lot of processing power to use (re-encoding and transcoding for certain streaming clients) when, like others say, it might just be easier to not bother
I agree and have found that out. HEVC is a hog when it comes to processing. But, the reason I’m re-encoding is because my system crashed or should I say someone crashed it for me (long story) and I need to rebuild a large part of my library and just want everything consistent.
It’s crazy. Why does the libx265 take SO much processing power to just convert ONE file at a time. I mean it pushes my CPU to >80% and if I try 2 files it’s 100% and stays there. And, the hevc_amf encoder won’t create 10-bit HEVC through the GUI I use. I’m just about ready to encode from the original sources again to h.264 and forget it.
