Hi Daniel, I have a functional bitmap library[1] as a part of my CSS engine. This library is inspired by the official pict-lib and flomap(images-lib), and handles bitmap% directly. I don't think it is efficient enough since every functional operation creates another bitmap%.
Here I recommend you to take a look at the flomap, it is written in typed racket and represents high precision bitmap objects with flvector, composition and transformation should therefore efficient. You just need to convert the flomap struct into a bitmap% instance when drawing(you might need to take care of the backing scale). The basic composition is simple, you can write your own version within a day, but the performance ceiling may relate to Racket instead of algorithms you picked(since algorithms are already simple enough). If performance is really a problem, you may want to write your own library with Racket Futures.
