It was already practically instantaneous compared to video encoding, but neat anyway.
- Maybe that's cause FLAC encodes audio instead.
Thank you so much! I mean I have a threadripper with 48 threads.
- Yeah I’m sure they’ve got a lot of flac over this
  
  Yeah, but it's their lossless.
  
  yes, I definitely got a lot of flair 😜
Is it anything like multi-threaded xz -- in that you're trading encoding speed for size?
