Re: [Image-SIG] Comparison of PIL and GD speed for setting pixels through python

With prompting from Chris, and a little further work in gd, I have updated this comparison further, adding a further gd/ctypes test, this time setting pixel values using the raw pixel data, as well as the start of a test for a numpy/PIL option. Unfortunately it doesn't fully work, at least
