> Tomeu, I was using that snippet to get the icon's size through cairo
calls; I deleted it as the get_surface call is very slow (the LRU
implementation is very slow).
The LRU code is what is slow there? How can that be slower than the svg
and cairo stuff?
> I don't see any other downsides but the cropping bug; a workaround would
be increasing the clipping area of a small factor.
I hope we can fix it for real, will give it a try.
> I think we should also try to tweak the number of fps as garycmartin
suggests; perhaps Eben can tell what higher value for _INTERVAL would
remain reasonable (if it wasn't already tweaked so) ?
Agreed, Eben?
