I can't figure out what the problem is. please help

It says "Decoding is not keeping up"

Your CPU can't cope with the work you are giving it (in real time).

how to understand what kind of work an existing processor can handle? And which one is needed to cope with the current set of cameras?
I have high load on the processor even if I leave only three cameras on.
And this spam in logs.

Сonsidering the fact that there are examples of 90 cameras on the i7-6700 and a pair of gtx 610 on the TRASSIR system work fine.
I can assume that there is still something wrong in the settings of the ZM. Because the power of hardware, in theory, should be enough. Yes, I have not yet managed to configure vaapi to unload the processor. At the same time, two cameras are set to record continuously. with the option "camera passthrought". And everything is fine on the recordings.
