Name        : epeg
Product     : Fedora 8
Version     : 0.9.1.042
Release     : 4.fc8
URL         : http://web.enlightenment.org/p.php?p=about/efl&l=en
Summary     : Immensely fast JPEG thumbnailer
Description :
Epeg is insanely fast at loading large JPEG images and scaling them down to
tiny thumbnails. It's speedup will be proportional to the size difference
between the source image and the output thumbnail size as a count of their
pixels.

It makes use of libjpeg features of being able to load an image by only
decoding the DCT coefficients needed to reconstruct an image of the size
desired. This gives a massive speedup. If you do not try and access the pixels
in a format other than YUV (or GRAY8 if the source is grascale) then it also
avoids colorspace conversions as well.
