 |  Direct2D: Hardware Rendering a Browser - Firefox Performance Tested A short while ago I wrote about my work on DirectWrite usage in Firefox. Next to DirectWrite, Microsoft also published another new API with Windows 7 (and the Vista Platform Update), called Direct2D. Direct2D is designed as a replacement for GDI and functions as a vector graphics rendering engine, using GPU acceleration to give large performance boosts to transformations and blending operations. http://www.basschouten.com/blog1.php...ring-a-browser
