what app you use to compress it?
WinFF with an up to date FFMPEG installed
Handbreak will work as well
The best thing to have is a good graphics card, and run the compression off of the card instead of your cpu.
That said, if you're really patient, you can compress things to an absurd degree, it just takes a damn long time.
CPU compression, shittily ~45m per file
CPU Compression, done well ~2-3hrs per file
GPU Compression, done decently ~5-10m per file
My preset is:
-c:v av1_nvenc -preset p6 -tune hq -profile:v main10 -pix_fmt p010le -rc vbr -b:v 2500k -maxrate 4000k -bufsize 8000k -vf scale=w='min(1920,iw)':h='min(1080,ih)':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease -c:a aac -ar 48000 -b:a 96k -movflags +faststart
It does require an nvidia card with up to date drivers though
