That is an interesting observation since I would think that of just 
about any de-interlacer (other than ones that simply discard frames, 
which is cheating IMHO) ivtc would be the least computationally 
intensive since it doesn't require any per frame calculations but simply 
shifts frames around.  I suppose it has to do interframe comparisons 
though.  Maybe that's what kills it.

I wish it did since much of what I watch (i.e. TV drama, comedies, etc. 
  not sports) is still filmed at 24fps and my cableco sends them down 
telecined, even on clearqam.
