Oh, thanks for the news about the rendering. I didn't knew you already
started to work on it. Really sad to learn it will be for you a lot of
work, as rewriting the scaling algorithm.   :/
I'm at your disposal if you ever make a branch to test something and need
the comparison of rendering between 'Nvidia + proprietary driver' and
'Intel + Libre Mesa'. I have both here with 2 Krita Git master.
