This allows us to make two further improvements: 1. We no longer need the `isItalic` pre-filter lines that were used when considering candidate font faces. These filters were a shortcut that unconditionally excluded italic-only faces whenever the request was non-italic. But eliminatedCapabilities() already handles this correctly via the full CSS 5.2.6 matching algorithm, so this is now redundant. 2. We can make the search for "best match" font work in linear time (rather than O(n log n) time) by precomputing the width/style/weight distances for each candidate face once, then sort the resulting values instead of repeated redundant calls in each comparison. 2189686 1 webkit-bug-importer 2026-03-12 12:12:15 -0700 <rdar://problem/172401655> 2189688 2 bfulgham 2026-03-12 12:17:44 -0700 Pull request: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/60497 2190050 3 bfulgham 2026-03-13 10:15:01 -0700 The worksets involved in font matching are too small to benefit from Idea #2, so I'll revise the patch to remove that. 2190722 4 ews-feeder 2026-03-16 15:23:49 -0700 Committed 309352@main (1eb20f29b046): <https://commits.webkit.org/309352@main> Reviewed commits have been landed.
