I actually suspect that even current versions of Cairo, used carefully, should prove faster than the livarot-based renderer.
I'm basing the above off of comments from ishmal; he did a rough comparison iirc a couple weeks ago, and found it rendered right but was noticeably slower.
Interesting; what was the test case?
Maybe Bob could speak to this. I think it was timed rendering of a particular file.
Hmm, that sounds more like a comparison of libxrsvg (the Cairo librsvg port) versus our own complete system, in which case there would be a lot of other variables involved. I'd be more interested in a direct comparision of Cairo versus the livarot rasterizer.
