speed of transcoder

[Aaron Melgalvis <am...@remasys.com>]

Converting svg to jpeg, or png. is unfortunately to slow. 

It works perfectly but is painfully slow.

Are there any settings to improve the performance?

or any reliable alternatives?

librsvg 2.4 doesnt render quite right. I'm going to be trying librsvg
2.5 very soon.

    Compared to what?  How are you testing?  What content
are you testing with?

    Unfortunately statements like the above aren't very helpful.

    Many people make the mistake of
testing a single file - with Java there tends to be a
very large startup overhead, and then performance improves
greatly.  So if you want file timings you really need to
run a batch of > 30 files to get an accurate view of
'per file' times without the very significant startup
overhead.

    This depends a lot on the content involved.
There may be many tricks that can be played to improve
rendering performance.

But no there is no magic "goMuchFaster" option :)

     To answer the performance question it would be
important to know a lot more about how you are planning
on using Batik.

    Batik is the most complete SVG renderer, in most
of my usage Batik is generally within a factor of
two with other implementations (usually closer).

    I don't know anything about either of these other than they exist.
