Hans,

Sounds pretty impressive.  As a point of reference, do you have = timing
data for the existing MKII and MKIV image processing code?

Cheers,
Mike

Subject: [NTG-context] mplib

Hi,

as some of you may know, there is an mplib project ..

last week taco and spent quite some time on exploring the integration = in
luatex (and therefore mkiv)

experiments with loadiing the format, processing graphics and = conversion
to pdf show a throughput of less than 0.001 seconds per graphic; a = usual
we did much timing and although experimental, the code is already = pretty
okay, just to give an idea:

        mkiv lua stats : metapost = processing time  - 6.834 seconds (loading:
0.014 seconds, execution: 1.474 seconds, n: 15000)

indeed, that's 15K graphics in 7 seconds.

so, the next couple of months i'll start providing an adapted mp
handling mechanisms. among the possible options are

- extensions based on pre/postscripts (instead of specials)
- multiple mp engines (\startuseMPgraphic[metafun]{name} and such)

so, if you have specific wishes ... now is the time to let them know


Hans
