I've tested several files with '-mj' and '-mf' (using -V 0...2).
Most coded files have the same size within 0.1%.
So you can prevent switching artefacts by using -mf instead of -mj.
Bit demands of the modes (tested with 20 CD albums):
-mm 100%
-mj -mm * 1.62 ...1.88
-mf -mj * 0.999...1.001
-ms -mm * 1.985...2.001
-md is not documented.
