Hi, Thomas -- I haven't tried your suggestions yet, but thanks....
here are a few numbers for rendering a figure (with lots of lines, simple shapes, and text) to a JSVGCanvas in my application running on a Powerbook G4, 800MHz, 1G SDRAM (times in ms): MacOSX Batik "doc" "build" "render" 10.3.x 1.5 354 251 8308 10.3.x 1.6 369 245 675 YEA! 10.4.2 1.6 333 214 13637 DARN! I did try to profile my application running on MacOSX 10.4.2 (Powerbook G4, 800MHz, 1G SDRAM) using Shark. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get Shark to lookup symbols in my app yet, but I found that during rendering, much of the CPU time is spent in calls to __memcpy() in the commpage library, and most of the calls were made from CGBlt_copyBytes() in Apple's CoreGraphics library... doubt if that helps at all, but maybe it will light some bulb out there somewhere... -- Scott A.
