AppImage is to be expected, but still disappointing. Bottom
line is that users who can take advantage of Andrey's RPMs
should always do so. Besides being faster, it provides more
capabilities and opportunity to make some minor side changes.
Thank you, Terje, for doing the tests and passing along this
information.<br>

<br>
In average rendering is ca. 20% faster with the RPM.<br>
I did also additional test with the AppImage on Slowroll and
got a bit <br>
faster rendering, but not so fast as with RPM on Leap.<br>

==========================<br>
<br>
Not especially news or differently, but as I also have supplemented
my AppImages and native builds tests on Slowroll, I add them here.
My conclusion is that the package (RPM) build (due to most
dynamically linked libs I guess?) still stands as fastest, while the
AppImages supply with benefit of portability (cross Linux
distributions).<br>
