Speeding up extracting of large movie files (sh.itjust.works)

Is there a way to speed up extraction of 40+gb 4k videos? This is by far the most time consuming part of the process and I was wondering if there was any hardware acceleration or even multi cpu way of speeding this up.

My cpu isn’t the newest, it’s an i7 5820k, overclocked just a bit, but I have a hard time believing that a newer cpu on its own will have more than marginal gains on this front, but I could be way off here.

edit: I just realized my processor came out in 2014. So I'm sure in 10 years we've made some inroads, I thought I bought this guy in 2018.

Are you sure network isn’t a bottleneck? Even with a gigabit network, copying 40gb worth of data back and forth can take a while.

Yeah network speed for gigabit is max 125MB/s. Or closer the 115MB/s including network overhead.

Even with 2.5G networking I'm only hitting 250MB/s for my NAS. I've never seen anything close to 300MB/s
