Oh, and another question is, why do we do ?
if (!Float.isFinite(c[0]) || !Float.isFinite(c[1]) || !Float.isFinite(c[2]) ...

It is just a dream that all pdfs are wellformed. We are doing a lot of checks
and magic repairs to avoid issues while parsing and of course to avoid
questions like "Why can't PDFBox parse this pdf, adobe (or any other popular
pdf tool) can.

> I am testing text extraction from PDF and profiling the execution.
> I found that the third major time consumer is with matrix multiplicaitons.
> The Matrix class spends large amounts of time copying results to new
> instances.
> Also, the if statements are slowing down execution as they kill performance
> in modern CPUs.
