Scaling to the nearest power-of-2 is certainly asking for horrible resuls. I also don't think the hardware acceleration will buy you much, transferr overhead is quite high and not-so-current hardware is huge limitations on maximum sizes it can handle. E.g. the given example wouldn't work with most IGD chips.
