138 <p>As you can see, the convenience of the pixel cache sometimes comes with a trade-off in storage (e.g. storing a 1-bit monochrome image as 16-bit is wasteful) and speed (i.e. storing the entire image in memory is generally slower than accessing one scanline of pixels at a time). In most cases, the benefits of the pixel cache typically outweigh any disadvantages.</p>
208 scanline or a few scanlines of pixels at a time. However, you can get any rectangular region of pixels you want. GetAuthenticPixels() requires that the region you request is within the bounds of the image area. For a 640 by 480 image, you can get a scanline of 640 pixels at row 479 but if you ask for a scanline at row 480, an exception is returned (rows are numbered starting at 0). GetVirtualPixels() does not have this constraint. For example,</p>
351 <p>GetVirtualPixels(), GetAuthenticPixels(), QueueAuthenticPixels(), and SyncAuthenticPixels(), from the MagickCore API, can only deal with one pixel cache area per image at a time. Suppose you want to access the first and last scanline from the same image at the same time? The solution is to use a <var>cache view</var>. A cache view permits you to access as many areas simultaneously in the pixel cache as you require. The cache view <a href="api/cache-view.html">methods</a> are analogous to the previous methods except you must first open a view and close it when you are finished with it. Here is a snippet of MagickCore code that permits us to access the first and last pixel row of the image simultaneously:</p>
383 <p>Although you can request any pixel from the pixel cache, any block of pixels, any scanline, multiple scanlines, any row, or multiple rows with the GetVirtualPixels(), GetAuthenticPixels(), QueueAuthenticPixels, GetCacheViewVirtualPixels(), GetCacheViewAuthenticPixels(), and QueueCacheViewAuthenticPixels() methods, ImageMagick is optimized to return a few pixels or a few pixels rows at time. There are additional optimizations if you request a single scanline or a few scanlines at a time. These methods also permit random access to the pixel cache, however, ImageMagick is optimized for sequential access. Although you can access scanlines of pixels sequentially from the last row of the image to the first, you may get a performance boost if you access scanlines from the first row of the image to the last, in sequential order.</p>
