Hi everyone
 
I thought I'd share some results from tests to enable multithreading on
our worker nodes.
 
These tests were done on an MPEG2 captured video with these settings:
 
capture.device.Presenter.codec.framerate=30
capture.device.Presenter.codec=ffenc_mpeg2video
capture.device.Presenter.container=mpegtsmux
 
H.264 encoding (PASSED)
I confirmed with top and htop that all CPUs (4 in this case) were in
use. Maximum % use was 390. I added -threads 8 to the ffmpeg command.
 
AVI (PASSED)
CPU usage spiked to 130% spread over the 4 cores with -threads 8
switch.
CPU usage spiked to 250% spread over the 4 cores with -threads 16
switch.
 
MP4 (Mobile)
CPU usage spiked to 390% spread over the 4 cores with either  -threads
16 or -threads 8 switch.
 
 
These results are based on the encoding profiles found in the Wiki.
 
I hope someone finds them useful :)
 
Thanks
