Chromium seems to have a fast scaling algorithm to show something as fast as possible when the zoom level changes, and then (about one second later on this laptop) replaces the image with another one, presumably one scaled with an algorithm that takes more time but gives better results on non-pathological cases. -- Simon Sapin
