I've created a simple testscript for XnViewMP-Batch 1.8.6 as well as XnConvert 1.0.4
The purpose of the script is to convert images to JPEGLI with a quality level of 14.

If a batch conversion in XnViewMP or XnConvert takes longer than 60 seconds, you have to measure the conversion time on your phone, because XnConvert only shows full minutes:

In this example the conversion took 1 minute and 4 seconds.

Here, it took 4 minutes ...

That new library actually seems to to use multi-threading now and has therefore become much faster.
