Thanks. It's not any faster, but I have made some code improvements. In particular, the codebases for weighted and unweighted stippling are now combined.

Here's the latest output loaded into QGIS

I've tossed together some better looking symbols, though ultimately this is going to need a whole bunch of different ones. The mountains also need to be sorted by y coordinate.

A large area of forest around the great lakes disappeared while I was trying to clean up my geometry a bit and I didn't notice until I was several hours into a run through the stippler. I've run with it for now to see how things are looking.

I probably need to increase the size of the buffer around lakes and rivers a tad, and reduce it around mountains.
