Tilman Hausherr closed PDFBOX-2908.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

We're only fixing small bugs in the 1.8.* version, not making optimizations. 
The 2.0 does have some possible improvements related to streams and temporary 
files. Hint: in the 1.8 versions, if possible, always try to read from a file 
and not from a FileInputStream.

> PDFTextStripper.writeText is slow

>    Affects Versions: 1.8.9, 1.8.10
>         Environment: Mac OS X 10.10.4
> java version "1.8.0_31"

>
> I inserted raw time reporting functions before and after 
> PDFTextStripper.writeText, it looks like it takes quite long to writeText to 
> a StringWriter (84045ms for a ~1M pdf file).
> It looks like a 1.8.x issues (I can reproduce on 1.8.9 and 1.8.10, didn't 
> test on other versions yet). When I switched to 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT, and the time 
> improved dramatically to 532ms using the same code and for the same pdf file. 
> What I changed in code was only one import to accommodate PDFTextStripper's 
> package change in 2.0.0.
