I work with 5Mp and larger streams a lot. This is probably not a live555 issue but there are 2 things that come to mind that the larger streams stress without using a lot of CPU.
Decoding not keeping up. (Buffers on client side, watch client memory to see this.) Single threaded decoding can take more time to decode than the duration between frames when they get large. This can happen even with less than 50% of a single core. Reduce quality settings on stream, Reduce framerate. Reduce resolution. Skip most or all the decoding. printing out the framesize, timestamp and type once every 60 keyframes or a keyframe only and see if it eliminates the delay Recompile the the decoder to use multiple threads. TCP vs UDP (Buffers on server side, usually delay->loss of framerate->skips to catch back up->repeat.) Network delay impacts the required buffer on the camera side more if TCP transport is chosen. It may have to resend so it hangs on until the ACK. If the buffer is small and gets full the camera starts to drop frames. It also is just plain more work, try UDP transport.
