Doing as little alpha blending as possible is an important performance consideration for table view cells on the iPhone. I have table cells that are largely comprised of one big image view. I have set the UIImageView to be opaque, in both Interface Builder and programmatically, but the CoreAnimation instrument still shows that it is being alpha-blended.
Is there a way to make UIImageViews actually opaque, or am I going to have to do custom drawing to keep from blending?
