Hi Marti and others,

First let me say that I'm extremely happy with the quality and functionality of 
this excellent lcms library. Nice support and frequent updates!

Then, I would like to inquire about the speed of colour transforms of lcms.
FYI, I have build an application which, among other things, does hot folder 
colour transforms.

I compared 'my' application to several commercial packages, such as iQueue, 
Fuji ColourKit, Photoshop, ...
The quality of the lcms transforms is top-notch. Actually better (less 
quantitisation noise, more accurate Lab reproduction) than most of the 'others'.

However, the speed of transforms is relatively low. Images from my Minolta D7i 
(JPEG's of 2 to 3 MB) are transformed to output space in approximately 6 
seconds on my machine.
As a reference, Gretag's iQueue is performing the same transform well under 3 
seconds. Adobe Photoshop is also very fast in transform speed, similar to that 
of iQueue.

Before you ask, yes I did all the speed optimisations in lcms.h. Also I tried 
several options in cmsCreateTransform to improve speed. Yet I can't seem to be 
able to improve it significantly.

Please note that this issue is not *that* important to me, I'm very happy with 
the obtained results.

I just hope to get some clarification on the issue...

Thanks and have a nice day,
Auke Nauta
