Deleted the U and V scans in the YUV JPEG as it is greyscale, then encoded it through Google's Guetzli JPEG encoder which produces a much smaller file that is easier/faster to decode as well. Decode time on my fast MacBook Pro went from 116ms to 51ms. Filesize from almost 12MB to 5MB. Less laggy at original size.
