Has anyone yet tried incorporating rasterImage into the base image()
function? It seems to make a *huge* difference, with
a very small number of added/changed lines of code. (Of course I have
barely tested it at all.)
Is there any reason this *shouldn't* go into the next release?
> source("image.R")
> z <- matrix(runif(1e6),nrow=1000)
> image(z)
> image(z,useRaster=TRUE)
(Patch against SVN 54284 attached; people can contact me if it doesn't
go through and they want it.)
