While working on my resampler, I noticed the tile cache often got itself into near-deadlock situations when it was actually working under moderate cache pressure. I have a series of four tile cache performance patches following this mail; one is a simple one-liner that removes a few integer divisions, the second adds a decent amount of profiling collection and output to the tile cache, the third fixes the tile cache strategy and the fourth addresses bugs and tuning problems with the idle swapper. Along with these patches, I've also written automated test/profiling scripts.
Detailed description of the patches, test scripts and some profilng results can be found at http://web.mit.edu/xiphmont/Public/gimp-fu/gimp-cache.html The patches are against the gnome master, but I believe they can be [and should be] applied to 2.6 as well.
