you shouldnt be comparing pixel wise, because if a minimal per pixel
difference where the goal dither would always be inferrior to taking the
closest color ...
A likely better comparission is in 2d dct domain, with the low frequency
coefficients more strongly weightet. But maybe some psychovissual
comparission (x264 has some code for this ...) would work as well or
even better.
