<p>Thanks for the quick response. I'm not using latest GDAL and was curious where that multi-threading enabling was made ? Was it some where in GDAL code or through an option in the openjpeg 2.3.0 API ?</p>

No, was meant starting with GDAL 2.3 (the current dev version). And that requires openjpeg >= 2.2 as well.</p>

openjpeg >= 2.2 (actually 2.1.2, but I restricted to 2.2 or later) brings multithreading decoding at codeblock level, and GDAL trunk automatically enables it.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; text-indent:0px">

<p style="margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; text-indent:0px">
So the doc is correct I think, but I know that those similar version numbers between GDAL and openjpeg can be confusing.</p>

Bottom line: use the latest and greatest of both to get the better performance.</p>
