[geos-devel] Improved buffering in JTS

[Martin Davis]

GEOS'ers,

After years of thinking (really!) I've implemented some improvements for 
buffering in JTS which dramatically improve the performance and memory 
usage characteristics.  See this thread for some more details:

http://lists.jump-project.org/pipermail/jts-devel/2008-October/002675.html

It might be of interest to consider porting this over to GEOS (before 
the upcoming release?).  It's a relatively minor port - 1 class and 
about 20 lines of calling code.  I can give specific details if required.

Martin
