Its entirely possible that I'm missing something, but I was merely inquiring about running the same timing tests that you did with mplib, but instead using the existing MKII and MKIV image inclusion code.  How much of a speedup over the existing code does the mplib integration buy us for this benchmark?

you mean a difference in speed? it depends on how complex the search is, 
but in general the mkiv code is faster and more robust there and has 
more potential for plugins; also mkiv does runtime conversion if needed; 
of course inclusion itself is not faster while (eventually) manipulation 
will be
