Hi to all,
I use inkscape and I am happy of it.
I am writing here because I realized export bitmap function is too slow in particular when there are some object with blur option sets high.
If I save the drawing in plain SVG and import it with gimp it take just few seconds instead many tents of minutes.
I hope this help you to grab from gimp a more efficient algorithm which may be used to rendere the draw too which, with blurred object, is very low too.
However I see that inkscape rendering is slight better than gimp's one but in many low-res application and in show-and-try-again or in view rendering such excellence are not required and takes too much time.
Please leave me in CC aswering this email because I am subscribed to this m-list by digest.
Cheers, -- /roberto

Precisely which version of Inkscape are you using? Rendering speed of blurs has been greatly improved recently.
The one cames with Ubuntu 7.04 which is 0.45 I can download 0.46 in source, compile, install and take a test if you think there will be some improvements.
Cheers,

I think there will be improvements. Please always test the latest code.

Yes, the version 0.46 has some great improvments respect 0.45 in bitmap rendering time. However I think it is very much slower and much more CPU consuming than Gimp's SVG import filter.
I hope this helps,
