I am writing a cocoa program that requires text to be rendered quickly to a view. The cocoa text rendering calls are too slow. The quartz text calls do not support (I think) complicated text handling like multiple fonts/colors on one string of text and the antialiasing on the postscript fonts is soft/blurry when compared to the cocoa antialiasing. What is the fastest way to draw text to a CGContext? Is it using the ATSUI toolbox?

Is this rapidly-changing text, or do you need to render the same text frequently?
