If you have an rtsp stream showing a mostly static picture then it is
very highly compressed (which is why it takes a lot of processor to
decode it).  Mjpeg (I believe) is basically a stream of full images
with no compression so may be much bigger.  I am surprised it is that
much however, but if that is what it is then that is what it is.  Do
you need to use mjpeg as the output stream?
