+Copy Offscreen Rendering result back to RAM
+-------------------------------------------
+
+This will create a new image with the given name.
+If it already exists, it will override the existing one.
+
+Currently almost all of the execution time is spent in the last line.
+In the future this will hopefully be solved by implementing the Python buffer protocol for `bgl.Buffer` and `Image.pixels` (aka `bpy_prop_array`).
