summary: Scroll optimisations for Windows
class: wish: This is a request for an enhancement.
difficulty: tricky: Needs many tuits.
priority: dormant: This is an old feature request that we no longer think is relevant.

Think about pre-building a bitmap for better scrolling, or possibly just doing the old scroll optimisations over again and getting them right.

Quite apart from the performance improvement, this may also improve the experience of people using screen reader software such as JAWS.

SGT, 2024-11-17: classifying this wish as dormant. Computers are fast enough these days that nobody seems to care that we have no scroll optimisation.
