2006-12-23cairo: update to 1.3.10Koen Kooi1
From the release notes: This is the fifth development snapshot in the 1.3 series. It comes 9 days after the 1.3.8 snapshot, and still well within our goal of having a new snapshot every week, (though don't expect one next week---we'll all be too stuffed with sugar plums). Speaking of sugar plums, there's a sweet treat waiting in this cairo snapshot---greatly improved performance for stroking rectilinear shapes, like the ever common rectangle: image-rgb box-outline-stroke-100 0.18 -> 0.01: 25.58x speedup In past releases of cairo, some people had noticed that using cairo_stroke to draw rectilinear shapes could be awfully slow. Many people had worked around this by using cairo_fill with a more complex path and gotten a 5-15x performance benefit from that. If you're one of those people, please rip that workaround out, as now the more natural use of cairo_stroke should be 1.2-2x faster than the unnatural use of cairo_fill. And if you hadn't ever implemented that workaround, then you just might get to see your stroked rectangles now get drawn 5-25x faster.
