Have you measured at all how performance compares between Qt 4 and Qt
5 in HiDPI mode?  I assume CoreGraphics benefits from hardware
acceleration and although Qt's raster engine has often been faster
than the 'native' engine, I wonder if that will still be the case when
processing 4x the number of pixels on a Retina-era Mac.
