Missing things:

Polish (code is very traumatizing in this state)
Proper Fp64 support
Refine chunk management
Anti Aliasing (3x3 SSAA, super unoptimized)

Performance optimizations:

Cardioid & Bulb checking
Length checking instead of naive greater-than-two approach
Periodicity checking
Image caching
