Seems the help of --num-threads does not say it exactly:

  [--num-threads THREADNUM]:
      Using multiple threads to read and compress data of each page in parallel.
      And it will reduces time for saving DUMPFILE.
      This feature only supports creating DUMPFILE in kdump-comressed format from
      VMCORE in kdump-compressed format or elf format.

Lzo is also a compress method, it should be mentioned that --num-threads only
supports zlib compressed vmcore.

Also worth to mention about the recommended -d value for this feature.

Thanks
Dave
