I had thought that you'd earlier discovered the difference between MC
and Rev to be simply that Rev's boot script changes the default

collection of stacks as their IDE could bring the same performance in
any other IDE by simply changing the paintCompression back to the
engine's default.
What am I missing?

Concerning your statement and question, nothing.
I submitted the bug report after a longer discussion on the improvement
list and had been asked by Mark Waddingham to present a test stack. The
discussion also revealed that the Rev team was apparently unaware of
these issues.
What astonished me in my tests was the fact that under specific
circumstances the slowing down of imagedata under PNG compression was
far greater than expected, namely 12 times compared to RLE when
retrieving imagedate out of a custom property.
I thought it useful to share my findings with the Metacard list, too,
and - although the basic fact about the boot script has been mentioned
before on this list - as memory usually is short, I think it would not
hurt to mention this fact again.
