Opus / Re: Opus decoding complexity

Decoding speeds:
FLAC  - 1090x
uncompressed WAV - 40000x

FLAC is 40x times slower than uncompressed WAV. "FLAC is not hero"

All smartphones with SOC on 28nm or better have the same battery life for playback of MP3, AAC, HE-AAC, Opus, Vorbis, Musepack, FLAC or uncompressed WAV. 
During audio playback CPU consumes only tiny fraction of complete system consumption (CPU, I/O, RAM, storage, DAC and  audio amplifier).

Decoding speed of audio decoder is not an indicator of battery life.
Complexity of decoder isn't an important subject by itself, rather its influence on usability indicators as battery life of devices.

FLAC is pity and misery and seditious.

I already told you multiple times, but you ignore it and force your brain-dead ideas.

Latest FFmpeg cli tool will be extremely slow with small packets (small number of samples encoded per frame/packet) if you use example tool from ffmpeg repo or code your own app with no brain-dead ideas like current ffmpeg mt implementation it will be 10000% faster than pity flac tool.
