Lossless / Other Codecs / Re: Tested: Lossless decoding speed, multithreaded - and fast verification
Last post by Porcus -Since you claimed for TTA that "There is no ways to do any optimizations here except bruteforce threading", then well, ... timing suggests otherwise, and to the extent that I don't think you need a more fine-tuned setup.
Nor do I think that would have tipped over as big differences as the following:
* WavPack verifies three times as fast as Monkey's - and 10x as fast as reference FLAC (because it doesn't do fast-verify) and 28.6x as fast as ffmpeg-generated WavPack 4 files (since those files don't offer the option)
* Different FLAC builds differ in encoding time by a factor of 2.5 on -5, and even more at -8: https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123025.msg1029768.html#msg1029768 . Sure one could be interested in an explanation, but you don't need that level of detail to point out that there are big differences.
* ffmpeg -threads 1 decodes nearly twice as fast as reference flac at -5, but several times slower at low block sizes
* ffmpeg outright rejects FLAC files instead of decoding. Heck I even got it to reject subset FLAC. And when it has encoded .wv files it cannot decode itself, then seriously: When flaws are like that, who would whine over the timing tool?!
