Nikolas Zimmermann is doing an exceptional work around #SVG for the #webkit project in general. And he is a wonderful voice on the W3C SVG WG to make progress on the SVG 2 spec. Go read his two blog posts. We need more of these in the browsers world.
Quoting
Our colleague Nikolas Zimmermann (of KSVG fame) has two very interesting posts on the Layer-Based #SVG Engine (LBSE) he’s been implementing. The first post covers the steps he’s taken to reduce layer overhead; the second gets into the details of compositing. Worth your time if you’ve ever written SVG, or if you’re interested in how browsers render things that aren’t HTML and CSS!
