Re: [android-developers] Will SurfaceView ever support hardware acceleration?
Hardware accelerated Canvas through SurfaceView is currently not planned, at least not in J.

Since hardware acceleration was introduced in 3.0 you would think that the SurfaceView should be supported in ICS. I'm currently working on an application that involves a SurfaceView that runs very slow on big screens (ex. HTC One X) and would really need some hardware acceleration.

Re: [android-developers] Will SurfaceView ever support hardware acceleration?
Recommendation is to use OpenGL. If you are using Canvas for your drawing in a SurfaceView, you aren't really gaining anything over just not using a SurfaceView. If you are using SurfaceView for performance reasons, you should prefer to use OpenGL to avoid the overhead of translating Canvas operations to OpenGL rendering.
