Thank you! The SkRecord system was _perfect_ for doing these optimizations. I don't think it would have been possible to do this project without it.

Let me also add that nanobench was a huge help, not just because it was a good benchmarking tool but also because it gave us some confidence that we're measuring the right thing. It's easy to make _something_ faster but hard to know if it's the right thing. Having that come pre-packaged from the project answers a lot of tricky questions that would otherwise be easy to get wrong.

  • That's how we felt answering performance questions of our own... we needed to know if our work was important, and the tools help keep that focus locked in. I'm no longer on the Skia team, but like, welcome to the Skia team; if you use nanobench, you're legit. :)

    I'm the same user name @gmail.com if you ever have any questions. It's been a while but I'd be happy to try to page things back in for a good cause.
