I couldn't find any hits for this issue in the archives - it's "web
dev", but related specifically to Android.

Last year, I implemented a web application specifically designed to
display large jpgs (approx 950px x 1000+px) in a magazine style format
on WebKit for the iPhone. It works great there, as well as any other
WebKit-enabled device - until Android.

On other devices, tapping zooms the image, then there is a momentary
pause while the image is rendered and sharpened - so text retains
clarity. The pause/render/sharpen never takes place on the Motorola
phone or the AVD I'm running though Eclipse. Even taking the web app
out the equation, going directly to the image in Android's flavor of
WebKit shows the same issue.

I've tried outputting jpgs with a much higher density: 165dpi, up to
600dpi - there is some clarity increase, but not enough.

Are large jpgs just a lost cause w/Android? Is the render/sharpen on
zoom something that just hasn't made it's way into Android's version
of WebKit?

Any ideas?
