Well, seems like it can!



This is something I was testing some weeks ago while on holidays. I was testing some tricks to improve the speed of flash raster methods. While at it, I played around with the usual XOR code a bit but I wasn't getting much (~20fps at 512x256).

Weeks later, while having a nice coding session with Texel I found Forrest Briggs post about this same topic, applied everything together, and there we go, 1024x1024 at ~38fps.

The source code is very simple but if you want to take a look... here you have.

So... in short, never forget the BitmapData.lock() and BitmapData.unlock() methods, it gave a ~7 > ~38 fps increase.
