Hi Lars,

I second Stefan's remark: there is no performance bottleneck using Java for what you ask.

It would seem Icy (http://icy.bioimageanalysis.org, open-source & ImageJ-friendly) does precisely what you wish via its built-in system of synchronized viewers (in time, space or both). In short, you may view the same dataset in multiple windows (no data duplication), and thus focus on specific zones of an image/video, while keeping a global viewer to see the "big picture". Playback options (loop, frame rate) and annotations (ROI) are also kept across viewers.

Better than words, here is a video that illustrates what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWWGY1b27Js

Hope this helps
Alexandre
