multithreading for decoding ?

Open klslz opened this issue 2 months ago • 2 comments

I am wondering if multithreading could also be introduced for the decoding part? There’s a lot of decoding going on out there.

Doubling the performance could then probably also be expected on that part.

Yes, it could. However, implementing multithreading for decoding will be more complicated than for encoding. Also, there are more things that can go wrong in decoding than encoding.

I don't have enough spare time to implement it.

I see. Didn’t realize it would be more complex.

Anyhow. Thx a lot for all your contributions. Great work.
