Yesterday I used a SWC pngEncoder made from haxe in an AIR application, and it performed 5 times faster than the adobe pngEncoder, with optional asynchronous  
compression. So I downloaded haxe right now and am looking at a tutorial.

On the [haxe.org](http://haxe.org) page, it says you can do stuff you only can do with alchemy in haxe for flash, so naturally this seems interesting.

Is it possible to include c++ math libraries and fast pixel operations?  
Is it easy if you know your way in flash and as3 or is it too difficult?

(if you just want the pngEncoder, I found it here.) [https://github.com/cameron314/PNGEncoder2](https://github.com/cameron314/PNGEncoder2)
