JPEG has been growing on me lately. In addition to all of the clever information theory magic, it is also practically the fastest way to compress an image by miles.
I've got implementations on top of libjpegturbo that can encode with latency low enough to support interactive frame rates at modern resolutions. We are talking 1920x1080@4:4:4 in under 10 milliseconds.
