 * Am I right that you are just open one instance in php, so the optimization is
   single threaded? Are there any ideas to change this?

 * Hello Poet,
 * That is correct, it is only single-threaded. There hasn’t been much request for
   this and, when we did have parallel optimization which allowed for multiple images
   at once, it was more trouble than it was worth.
 * However, for all suggestions, I generally recommend adding them to our [https://feedback.ewww.io/](https://feedback.ewww.io/)
   form as we usually look to that to see how much interest there is in something.
