Wasn't there a plan at one point to make use of Cairo and/or Pixman for such things?

Actually, I think we need SIMD implementations of image scalers if we really want speed. We already have pixman (needed by cairo) which has SIMD optimized image scalers available (and with latest versions also high quality SIMD image scalers) - somebody just needs to integrate it.
Yeah. Though legacy vcl has some weird formats to support still. But at least a number of critical paths could be re-routed to pixman (I would do that in basebmp though - simply because the semantics are much clearer defined in that code). Something else to keep an eye on: https://github.com/MetaScale/nt2/tree/master/modules/boost/simd Cheers, -- Thorsten
