A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The fix cited in bug # 5073407 must be included in the 1.5 release, otherwise no imaging application works.

Using drawImage when the current graphics context contains a scaling transform is SEVERAL orders of magnitude slower than 1.4.2.

Before, smooth scrolling, now the scrolling is unusable. It is not just the TYPE_3BYTE_BGR images as identified in bug # 5073407, it is also grayscale images.

Grayscale images are required for 'smooth' document imaging applications.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Use the test case from bug # 5073407.  Change one line as follows:

//        Img = new BufferedImage(1697, 2003, BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR);
        Img = new BufferedImage(1697, 2003, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_GRAY);


ACTUAL -
moving the slider bar is extremey slow.  Run exact code under 1.4.2 and it is extremely FAST.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

Release Regression From : 1.4.2
The above release value was the last known release where this 
bug was known to work. Since then there has been a regression.
