Hello everyone, We're looking into multithreaded PNG encoding/decoding, which would rely on deflate's restart markers. We're also looking into other compressors, like zstd. Zstandard supports frames, which have the same effect as deflate's restart markers. https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/3bee41a70eaf343fbcae3637b3f6edbe52f35ed8/doc/zstd_compression_format.md#frames Just spreading the information.
