Awesome! You might be happy or annoyed to find out that I've done
exactly the same thing:
  <http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/MathSource/7029/>

I think you've gone about things much differently than me; my code is
also slow, but I haven't compared yours to mine yet. Hopefully with
the two different techniques we'll be able to improve things. (I've
found odd bugs in my output for very finely-meshed contours, so yours
might be better than mine from the very beginning.)

I look forward to investigating, at any rate. The output from
Mathematica is simply unsuitable for use in publication graphics.

Best regards,
Will
