I realize that this question has already been answered, but I hope this helps anyone with the same problem.

If all you need to do is take screenshots. I recommend using Awesomium.NET. http://awesomium.com/

Doing this in C# rather than Java shouldn't be a major difficulty since they have similar syntax. It also supports C++ if you want to run your application on Linux. I presume it will be significantly faster than the WebDriver.

Use this if you choose C++: http://labs.awesomium.com/capturing-web-pages-with-c/

For C#.NET: http://awesomium.com/docs/1_7_rc3/sharp_api/
