David,
I've tested your code with CartoType, my map rendering library, and it
produces a small speedup there too. (The smallness of the speedup is to
do with the fact that CartoType's curves are nearly always
approximations to arcs of circles, which don't behave too badly with my
previous
No, forget that, I was getting confused.

Surely this should be

Therefore, combined with the fact that it significantly speeds up font
rendering, and solves the bug that prompted this latest burst of work,
I recommend that it goes into FreeType.
Great! Again, thanks a lot, David and Graham, for your hard work on
improving this crucial part of FreeType.

Werner, can you give a ruling on whether assignments in conditionals
are allowed in FreeType code?
If it is allowed in C89, then everything's fine. Please post the
final version I shall commit (I assume that your git access still
doesn't work...)
Graham,
Here are the results of my performance testing. I was a bit surprised by the
results.
In gray_convert_glyph, the time is distributed as follows:
OLDNEW
render_line 20%15%
render_cubic 15%33%
render_scanline 14%10%
split_cubic6%
, or a mixture
of both?
Best regards,
Graham

I've now implemented something based on Hain's research and it seems to be
measurably faster than previous FT approaches. I have used Hain's paper (now
available from http://tinyurl.com/HainBez) to provide some sensible heuristics
rather than implement all his stuff in detail, and done so
Here are some test results with Latin fonts (40 thousand curves from fonts at

Here's a new version of my spline flattening patch. (I would like to be
able to push this to the git repository but am having authentication
problems; Werner has been helping me, but no success so far, probably
because of my ineptitude in these matters.).
The nub of the latest change is that
