Hi all,

Here's a quick update on the project status:

I have implemented the "preloading" optimization where FreeType can perform curve flattening at load time to reduce render
time later.
Although the difference in performance seems to be very little (since the accumulation part takes the majority of rendering time)
(benchmarks attached).

I am almost done with the rendering algorithm improvement from fontdue as well. Benchmarks coming soon.

Will send a more detailed report explaining my implementation in detail later today and then will work towards the final submission.

Regards,
Anurag
