Ah no problem! I'm glad it's useful. `govips` was a pretty early binding and wasn't really done the libvips way. It doesn't expose all the operations or options, it's mostly done by hand, and there are a number of leaks and misfeatures. It's been replaced by `vipsgen`: https://github.com/cshum/vipsgen Which is an automatically generated 100% binding. It should have the complete API, it should be very stable and leak-free, and it should be simple to maintain. `autorot` is pretty expensive. You'll see much better performance if you flip x and y in your crop instead.
