OvchinnikovDmitrii c13d959343 lavc/libvpx: increase thread limit to 64 
This change improves the performance and multicore scalability of the vp9
codec for streaming single-pass encoded videos by taking advantage of up
to 64 cores in the system. The current thread limit for ffmpeg codecs is 16
(MAX_AUTO_THREADS in pthread_internal.h) due to a limitation in H.264 codec
that prevents more than 16 threads being used.

Experiments show that increasing the thread limit to 64 for vp9 improves
the performance for encoding 4K raw videos for streaming by up to 47%
compared to 16 threads, and from 20-30% for 32 threads, with the same quality
as measured by the VMAF score.

Rationale for this change:
Vp9 uses tiling to split the video frame into multiple columns; tiles must
be at least 256 pixels wide, so there is a limit to how many tiles can be
used. The tiles can be processed in parallel, and more tiles mean more CPU
threads can be used. 4K videos can make use of 16 threads, and 8K videos
can use 32. Row-mt can double the number of threads so 64 threads can be used.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation
