119 This option also adds such eye candy as blending an image over the
120 root background, as well as dynamic scaling and bluring of
121 background images.

123 Note that with this option enabled, rxvt's memory footprint might
124 increase by a few megabytes even if no extra features are used
125 (mostly due to third-party libraries used by libAI). Memory
126 footprint may somewhat be lowered if libAfterImage is configured
127 without support for SVG.
