  The internal image decoder seems quite a bit slower to me. On the other
hand, its progressive rendering lets you get a quick idea of what coming up
onto the screen although the benefits of this are greatly curtailed by the
warning that aborting a progressive render in process can lead to crashes
(once I just pulled the up/down scroller gadget while the IBrowse homepage
image was being rendered and it totally flipped out. The graphics escaped the
main rendering area and scrambled oddly outside of the IBrowse rendering
area).
