<pre>I was talking to Pekka Paalanen about the pixman fast path and he was telling
me:
1) good luck getting anything new into pixman
2) affine matrix + scaling, repeat/pad masking all make fast paths harder to
find
I believe the problematic bit in question is scaling, since it is not a problem
when not in hidpi, so we could take that out of the equation, but I'm not sure
how - sounds like it would be a much more intrusive change. Pekka suggested
that I try disabling bilinear filtering:
diff --git a/gtk/gtkcssshadowvalue.c b/gtk/gtkcssshadowvalue.c
index 35d3df7..6de2bf1 100644
--- a/gtk/gtkcssshadowvalue.c
+++ b/gtk/gtkcssshadowvalue.c
@@ -381,6 +381,7 @@ mask_surface_repeat (cairo_t *cr,
pattern = cairo_pattern_create_for_surface (surface);
cairo_pattern_set_extend (pattern, CAIRO_EXTEND_REPEAT);
+ cairo_pattern_set_filter (pattern, CAIRO_FILTER_FAST);
cairo_mask (cr, pattern);
That improves things quite a bit, but not as much as my patch does - resizing
the main gtk3-demo window is still quite jerky, for instance.</pre>
