Dear Jim & Clemens,
I have made recently improvements to my pisces patch:
- initial array tuning
- use one 1d array for the AA stride (aa tile lines) instead of int [32][]
- use binary search in crossing sort for newly added edges instead of heap
sort
- use few system properties for workload tunin
Hi Andrea,
I think the problem is that there really aren't a lot of people working
directly on the JDK any more with direct experience with rasterizers.
For my day to day responsibilities, I have been officially working on
JavaFX for a couple of years, but I am also the engineer with the most
Hello Andrea,

case because you're tweaking an area that doesn't have many experts around
that can offer a careful review.
The idea to go on with a separate project pluggable in OpenJDK is good,
perhaps you could consider h

Currently all AA tile generators feed 32x32 coverage tiles to the pipelines.
While this might be a good idea for software-only pipelines due to
good cache locality, it is a huge issue for at least the xrender
pipeline.
Each tile has to be uploaded
Andrea,
I made some progress since webrev 4 (may 2013) but mainly stopped working
on it due to lack of time and there is apparently no way (no bug id, no
feedback) to integrate my efforts into JDK 8.
I can try soon to produce a new patch (5) including my last changes (close
to initial code, less
Hi all,
it's been a few months since my last mail.
If you remember, I've tried participating to Laurent webrev discussions by
providing
a real world benchmark using GeoServer running the public OSGeo WMS
shootout.
If you want to read the last discussion on the topic, this was the thread:
