So take any large JPEG image and test it. The code to write an EPeg based thumbnailer is about 12 lines. The hildon-thumbnailer code got a bit messy and we have started redoing this together with the XFCE people as the Tumbler project, but you can find Fremantle's EPeg based thumbnailer plugin here: http://gitorious.org/maemo-af/hildon-thumbnail/blobs/master/daemon/plugins/epeg-plugin.c > and beating it by 5 times is unlikely.

Nod, that's the kind of differences that we measured ;) Which is also why we didn't hesitate to just switch to using it. -- Philip Van Hoof, freelance software developer home: me at pvanhoof dot be gnome: pvanhoof at gnome dot org http://pvanhoof.be/blog http://codeminded.be _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
