The two nested_instances_..._culled_in_bounded_time tests in the
renderer's tests checked that a frame with 2^30 differently placed
symbol instances finishes within 30 s of wall-clock time. On a loaded
machine the frame took longer than that, and both tests failed. The
time bound also passed when the frame did far more work than it should:
with the 4,096 limit on measured placements raised to 65,536, the frame
measured symbol art 131,118 times and finished in under 2 s.
SymbolBoxes now counts how many times measure_art runs a measure on
symbol art (art_measured), and FrameStats::symbol_art holds the count
for the frame's symbol boxes. The tests assert that the frame measures
symbol art at most 20,000 times. It measures it 8,234 times, and 4,160
times when each instance has a Transform effect of its own. The wait
for the frame is 300 s, as a guard against a frame that never ends.
A new test in vectorcraft-doc checks that each symbol's art box is
measured once however many instances of it are measured.
Envelope Options stored Anti-Alias and Preserve Shape Using, but nothing that
draws an image read them: a distorted image was always smoothed and always
cut into clip groups.
- With Anti-Alias off, each piece of a distorted image is marked pixelated
(saved as `pixelated`). The renderer draws it with nearest-neighbor
sampling and without mips, SVG export writes `image-rendering: pixelated`,
and PDF export writes it without /Interpolate.
- With Preserve Shape Using Transparency, each piece is the image with a
white opacity mask in the piece's shape instead of a clip group. The
renderer paints an image whose mask is one plain white path straight into
that path, as it does for an image in a clip group, when the path lies
inside the image's frame.
