After the initial load is there a performance difference between immediate mode rendering of vectorized XAML vs rasterized PNG? Does Noesis construct and display XAML so that successive renders are competitive with rasterized rendering?

Vectors are not converted to images internally. They are rendered per-frame. In general, Noesis is fast enough to avoid the over-head of an image but we are working on an extension to control this kind of caching because sometimes it is useful to convert a complex path to an image.

Rasterizing paths and effect output (i.e. drop shadows) is desirable from a performance perspective. Perhaps it increases memory utilization.

I would like to convert all of my images to vectorized XAML, but I'm hesitant to do so because I don't know what the FPS cost will be....
