I am trying to speed up scrolling of text and I need some advice on how to make it faster. First I tried calling ScrollRect, but then I found that calling CopyBits with the same bitmap for both src & dst, and changing the src & dst rects was faster. I went on to try StdBits but it seem to be no better than CopyBits. Is there any other way to do it faster? Instead of moving the bits around could I simply move pointers for a few lines and then do a CopyBits. The bitmap would have to be larger to handle the few extra lines of text, but it seems like it would be faster. If this subject is old and worn out could someone lead me to sources that address this issue.
