Is there a big difference between 2 pass and 1 pass?

I'm in the process of converting my DVD collection to AVI and I crank up the slider all the way. From what I can tell the results look great.

Does anyone see a big difference between 1 and 2 passes?
 
in high action parts or transitions from light > dark or reverse there will be noticable difference. other than that there isnt much, it just takes longer.
 
if you've gone up to full quality then 2 pass won't make much difference.

2-pass is for getting higher quality and smaller file size when using lower bitrates (e.g. at the 23 mark on the slider). same as xvid vs divx.
