 testing and was removed [11746].

 Implementation in [11746] is pretty similar to the one I picked from the
 PHP manual, just compared both. Both are pure PHP code and do not scale
 very well. No wonder that this does not pay out with larger images. Was
 just curious if there's a chance to have a fallback. Then maybe
 imagemagick but I'm not an expert with that one. But that would be on
 another ticket then.
