Yes, but as long as you avoid memory copies having 3 or 4 layers is a small price to pay if the the gist of the code is properly optimized. H.264 for example can consume a lot of CPU power so every optimization (on the processing code) counts. -- Felipe Contreras _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
