Conceptually, are we into parallelizing Freetype rendering engine? As I alluded earlier this can be happily delegated to text layout engines. Hence we used to care about thread safety in Freetype, while the text layout engine is busy processing 8 letters at once. Raph uses at least 8-core processor. I would be interested to see how his renderer performs on a single core, without parallel tricks.
