[Mono-list] LockBits() on Mono 2.2?

[Stifu]

Mono being faster than .NET with SetPixel must have been on a particular
case... I have found a huge performance issue with Mono and Get/SetPixel()
in a particular situation, making Mono crawl... Something instantaneous with
.NET can easily take 10 seconds with Mono (the perf hit is exponential,
too).
I couldn't make a reduced test case for that one either yet...

But hey, that aside, I've been happy with Mono too. :p
