The canvas2d dataURL-methods (and LC's base64-methods) are so far optimized that it is even slower if one directly sends and receives arrays, I tried it.
There could be more gain (what would give a speed-up-factor of up to 500) by using webGL, but this has issues with some 'black-listed' graphic cards. Also this is interesting for video-postprocessing/ animations/ 3D-Rendering only. For image processing canvas2d is fast enough and _very_ comfortable for complex filtering by internally using Uint8ClampedArrays. My HTML5/JS template given in the speedCcomparison stack is as simple as possible so that for a LiveCoder who ever worked with imageData, to write the basic image filters is learned in 15 minutes. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
