No, I only learned about Anti-Grain recently. To do a library justice 
requires studying it in depth to make a good comparison. There are many 
libraries out there, and they keep evolving, so doing comparisons can be 
difficult and time consuming.
If Anti-Grain is truly representation-independent, then it should be easier 
to adapt its algorithms into fully generic GIL algorithms.
