VIPS SMP benchmark
------------------
This is adapted from the system used to generate images for POD:
http://cima.ng-london.org.uk/~john/POD
Images from a 10k by 10k studio digital camera are colour processed, resized,
cropped and sharpened.
This thing was originally processing images off a remote server over a 100mbit
network. No attempt was made to make it quick (there was no point): you
could make it a lot faster very easily.
See
http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/index.php?title=Benchmarks
for results.
