Description

My tests for lazy images (#27603) showed that increasing sharp queue concurrency results in a better overall image transformation performance. Tested on two image-heavy sites.

First one (based on this starter):

Before this PR:

success Generating image thumbnails - 311.836s - 532/532 1.71/s
info Done building in 317.3029042 sec

After this PR:

success Generating image thumbnails - 174.163s - 532/532 3.05/s
info Done building in 179.6475083 sec

Second site:

Before this PR:

Generating image thumbnails - 436.176s

After this PR:

Generating image thumbnails - 259.491s

Note that for this site the build has failed for me with unrelated SSR error - for both checks. Just don't have time to figure it out now - my fork is pretty outdated. But image processing was significantly faster this way.

I also see similar good effect on lazy images - images load about 30-40% faster.

The best explanation I have is that the number of transformations for a single image is smaller than the number of cores and so sharp underutilizes the CPU.
