For some scripts Graphite is faster and for others it is slower. But it is not 
much slower and it is sometimes much faster. The more lookups that fire in your 
font (particularly contextual lookups) the more likely that Graphite will be 
faster.

It being an external library has nothing to do with it.

Yours,
