69    *   advance computation.
70    *
71    *   Typically, glyphs that are either unscaled, unhinted, bitmapped, or
72    *   light-hinted can have their advance width computed very quickly.
73    *
74    *   Normal and bytecode hinted modes that require loading, scaling, and
75    *   hinting of the glyph outline, are extremely slow by comparison.
