Our current CPU-based 2D vector graphics rendering pipelines are completely unmatched to modern hardware. They’re lumbering decades-old dinosaurs with poor render quality (full of nasty visual artifacts) and ridiculously slow speed compared to the possibilities on a GPU (or even compared to better-cache-optimized CPU algorithms, frankly).

I really wish everyone would move toward something like this instead: http://w3.impa.br/~diego/projects/GanEtAl14/
