Hi Jacek, c2g is a GEGL operation. You will find it in operations/common/c2g.c in the GEGL tree. I would recommend first finding out what causes the current slowness you experience: Is it the GEGL integration in GIMP? (compare c2g usage in GIMP with using GEGL directly). Is it due to some overhead in GEGL core? Or maybe there is room for optimization in the operation itself? > I would like to implement something like that to GIMP.

If you are going to do a new operation, the right way to do it is in GEGL. GIMP and others can then use it. -- Jon Nordby - www.jonnor.com _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
