You use --optimize, which makes it do slow tests. Try leaving that out.

      --optimize         optimize video output filesize (slower)
                         (same as speedlevel 0)
      --speedlevel       encoding is faster with higher values
                         the cost is quality and bandwidth
                         - 0: Slowest (best)
                         - 1: Enable early skip (default)
                         - 2: Disable motion compensation
