Anyone have any thoughts on whether this could be implemented on the GPU? (e.g. CUDA) Especially encoding.

The 2-6 integer wavelets would be very fast on a GPU, although they are almost too simple. GPUs struggle more this the entropy encoding/decoding, which is what a prevented a GPU port in the past. Do any GPUs have generic Huffman cores now?

What would be the use case for GPU encoding? Aren't the CPU encoders fast enough on 8-core or higher ?
