The main idea is to loop over the geometries instead to loop over the pixels (by the way skipping out-of-scope geometries), and to write only concerned raster blocks. Very efficient for large files compared to original method. The old algorithm can theoretically still be more efficient for very large geometries (to be checked). The attached files are working on svn-trunk rev 33442. The default behaviour is to use the original algorithm when nb features < 1000, then use the new one. The algorithm can be explicitly set with the '-optim' param. I hope this will help !
