Hi,

25% faster with Geminus
Timing done with a stopwatch.


Thanks for that. I suppose you could have done us a You Tube video.


With Geminus' 'Cache window contents in off-screen video memory'
switched on for Ovation Pro you can drag a menu over the same image
in real time at high speed without any holdup.  With it switched off
it is like dragging it through treacle.


I always say that a speed up of x 5 is needed to impress.
I regret it when I see how slow some JPEGs are. I usually feel this on Windows. Caching and better code could help.
As to the main issue. I think I will tweek OP so that the user can configure the way they want JPEG rendering, and I'll make the stupid, broken, useful way the default. So a new version in a short while, if I remember.
