Which uses more CPU to decode? MPEG-4 AVC (aka H.264) or MPEG-4 Part 2 (e.g. Xvid)?

In general, which one takes more processing power to *decode*? I am *not* talking about encoding. For example, would a video encoded at, let's say, 800 kbps using the Baseline Level 3 profile be less CPU-intensive than the same video encoded using the Simple Profile Level 3 at 800 kbps in Xvid/DivX/FFMpeg/etc.?
