Hi all,


I am interested in using the PDFBox library on an embedded system and therefore
did some simple performance tests. Compared to the other library I looked at
(iText), PDFBox performed considerably slower in some use cases. Since I would
rather go with PDFBox instead of iText I had a look with a profiler to see if I
could do something about it. I pin-pointed some of the pain areas and came up
with a few patches to address some of them. I would like to clean up my patches
and merge them back upstream, if the PDFBox team is interested.
Of course we are interested!!

So my question is: Would you be interested in those patches and if yes, how
should I proceed from here. On the PDFBox website, I can't find any procedure on
how to propose patches. Should I post them here on the mailing list for
discussion? I think opening JIRA issues for each patch would not be the right
solution, as these patches are not bugfixes but only small changes/refactorings
in the code which have no impact on the functionality itself.
JIRA issues are not limited to bugs, so feel free to create one or more tickets. Depending on the changes you might bundle similar/all changes in one ticket. Please provide your changes as patch against the current SVN-trunk version. Follow our coding conventions [1] and limit your patch to code changes and don't include some sort of reformatting.

Regards,

Michael

We are looking forward to discuss/include your proposals into PDFBox

TIA,
Andreas
