How does it compare with not having the acceleration ? ie. I don't think
I can do anything about it, except maybe optimize for the case where the
pixmap is already aligned (and thus doesn't need scissors), the main
question is is the acceleration still worth it or not at all since it's
generally not worth it on other architectures.

Cheers,
Ben.
