Did you try this exact lavc encoding on both machines for comparison, or
just on yours for comparison with the xvid encoding (which wouldn't
really reveal anything valuable)?

Before switching to lavc entirely, I experimented with the below
versions of xvid, noticing huge speed differences. Make sure you have
the exact same codec, compiled with the same options (output from
configure). 0.9.0 doesn't have a configure, though.

xvid_20030704   xvidcore-0.9.0  xvidcore-0.9.1  xvidcore-0.9.2

For proper comparison, the best would be like someone else mentioned;
use static binaries/codecs and the same ones on both 'puters.
