Hi! That sounds great. To maximize chances of getting this into GIMP: 1. Create a regression test for the despecle plug-in that is run with 'make check'. This is a great way to convince us that your optimization in fact does not change the output, only improves performance. 2. Create a patch, following the instructions here: http://www.gimp.org/bugs/howtos/submit-patch.html Since your change is significant, feel free to add yourself to the copyright header.
