In both IE and Firefox the convultion filter is much quicker. I had a strange experience with this, in the Flash IDE test that I made, the blurFilter was VERY slow, however, when I hold on to the window, the filter begins processing quicker. When I right click on the window, the same happens.
these are my results for Duguids code: Windows XP SP2 2 gigs of ram @ 2Ghz blurFilter blur v convolution blur blur filter time : 8825 convolution 3x3 (not very blurry though) : 7519 convolution 5x5 (more blurry but still not very) : 32372 no filter : 5636 Could it maybe have to do with the OSX superior UI rendering capabilities?
