I don't think external bitmap can workaround the performance degradation
problem, because the global lock for the bitmap are the one to blame for
this, it's the same for external or internal bitmap.
Do you know that is there anyone using external bitmap in the real
world? And is there numbers for performance? We'll have to consider
to keep it untill the new lockless bitmap is ready if so.
