This trick here is that the binary format of a wxBitmap is both platform
and instance dependent. The idea, as I understand it, is that a wxBitmap
has the same binary format as is needed for the current display, so each
platform is different, and it can also be different depending on the
depth of the display. Given all this, I doubt you're going to be able to
  improve on the wx supplied methods for converting from a wxImage to a
wxBitmap. (and if you do, contribute it to wx!)

Does the Agg backend use a binary format compatible with wxImage? If
not, that means there are two conversions required, which might be the
source of the slowdown.
