Can multicore compression be enabled in Image_transport? #144

Open LukeAI opened 5 years ago

LukeAI commented 5 years ago

Is there some way of building or enabling multi-core support for image_transport compression?

I don't know about PNG but the JPEG compression algorithm pretty naturally lends itself to parallelisation. I was wondering if this was implemented and possible to switch on?

If not, would a patch optionally enabling multicore compression be welcome?
