Per i futuri googler che scelgono l'approccio NDK, trovo l'algoritmo stackblur citato in modo affidabile. Ho trovato l'implementazione C ++ che non si basa su SSE qui - http://www.antigrain.com/__code/include/agg_blur.h.html#stack_blur_rgba32 che contiene alcune ottimizzazioni usando tabelle statiche come:
static unsigned short const stackblur_mul[255] =

Ho apportato modifiche all'algoritmo stackblur per sistemi multi-core - può essere trovato qui http://vitiy.info/stackblur-algorithm-multi-threaded-blur-for-cpp/
Dato che sempre più dispositivi hanno 4 core - le ottimizzazioni danno Vantaggio di 4x velocità.
