I think this is expected, the p010le conversion is C (no SIMD). The
yuv420p10le conversion is using x86 SIMD (probably AVX).

To fix this, add x86 SIMD implementations of the p010le conversions in
swscale. Better yet, add direct conversions from yuv420p10 (which I assume
is the internal format of your actual source after decoding?) to p010le,
first C and then later x86 SIMD.

I have no idea why you would want to convert from yuv420p to p010le or
yuv420p10le. I understand swscale supports it (it should) but I doubt
that's how you want to generate 10 bits content.
