What Hacker News says?
> > This isn't just resampling an image > GPUs can do that, too: http://fastcompression.com/products/jpeg/cuda-jpeg.htm Agreed - but for how many different formats, and how well do those implementations support all of the various format options for things like bit depth or palettes, compression variants, etc.? That's not just things like compliance testing – itself a big problem – but also handling all of the slight…

HN discussion> If we had had to write our own image resizing kernel, this would have taken much longer I don’t disagree but this is very subjective. You don’t need to invent anything, you only need to carefully implement a well known approach, e.g. this one: https://developer.nvidia.com/gpugems/GPUGems/gpugems_ch24.ht... Also there’re third party libraries for that, e.g. here’s one from the same company who do JPEG codec: http:/…

HN discussion> This isn't just resampling an image GPUs can do that, too: http://fastcompression.com/products/jpeg/cuda-jpeg.htm > you now need to make sure that all of your servers have GPUs available OP is running on google’s cloud: “n1-standard-16 host type, peaking at 12 instances on a typical day.” That instance costs $0.76/hour. Adding NVIDIA Tesla K80 is $0.7 extra. > it's really tempting not to deal with any of that Yeah…

HN discussionThis benchmark is showing 4k decoding on commodity hardware from 2018 fast enough for movie theaters. https://www.fastcompression.com/benchmarks/decoder-benchmark... So, presumably they could have swapped to commodity hardware a while ago.

HN discussion> There appear to be multiple high-speed JP2K decoders on the market; Comprimato[0] include a calculator for their product and it claims that a $240 GPU from 2016 can decode 4k 4:4:4 at 72fps. Interesting, that's a lot better. This is my source for my numbers: https://www.fastcompression.com/benchmarks/decoder-benchmark... A GPU helps for sure, a CPU alone is pretty bad. > According to Wikipedia, the DCP standard ha…
