           Summary: [META][GTK] Implement Deferred Rendering
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jae.park at company100.net


This is a metabug to track Deferred Rendering in GTK+ port.

The purpose of Deferred Rendering is to perform rasterization on a dedicated thread to improve performance.

Current implementation of WebKit burdens the main thread with many jobs including layout, JavaScript execution, painting, and other heavy jobs. By performing rasterization on a separate thread,  we can reduce the responsibilities of the main thread and bring a noticeable performance improvement. 

For details, refer to the following design document:

Any comments/discussions are appreciated.
