Which method? What speed are you using from the drop down menu (not that I really noted this effected the hardware much)? The measured pulses for Esp8266 using DMA method...

BTW, some of the things you mentioned can be caused by other artifacts. Ringing = pulse start or end doesn't go flat causing issues; fixed by filtering (caps and resistors)....

There are no task protections for the show call. I don't believe this has anything to do with the number of leds. There is an assumption (its in the documents)...

This board is not supported by my library. The generic ARM implementation requires some basic support that is not present with this boards Arduino support. This is common with MBED...

PIO - a feature of the RP2040 would allow for a bitbang code that is run within up to 8 internal IO CPUs (limited ASM instructions but good enough to...

NeoEase::Gamma is meant to be the same thing just as the formula. There are some animation tricks it can be used for; but it should match the gamma correction.

NOTE, there are 16 bit per color element LEDs out now like the UCS8903 and UCS8904, and my library supports them. I don't know what you mean by lookups. Could...

The timing is definitely not something the NeoPixelBus would support. As I commented above, this is left to the sketch author to manage per their platform choice as it is...

@swifty99 Constant output to support dithering is beyond the intent of this library at this time. If FadeCandy does what you need, why not branch it and update/fix it? NOTE:...

Great points and these are things I have considered; but until Arduino supports some sort of automatic dependency library support I can't move the color objects out due to the...
