My only experience with post-processed focal blur on large images (min
3200*2400) so far has been with Gimp (Picture Publisher crashes). It worked
but each step of the whole process took a very, very, very long time (I let
it run at night...), and I couldn't find a way to control the "bleeding".
I've seen that HCR-Edit can control bleeding so I'll have a try some day.
"True" or "fake", focal blur in large pics with relatively complex content
is still an issue.
