Gary Lucas commented on IMAGING-356:
------------------------------------
That's certainly feasible within the structure of the existing code.
In any case, an exception would be an exception, but at least we could make the
code throw an exception that provided slightly more information to the
developer using the API (something like "your image file has to be broken
because otherwise this stuff would work").

> Key: IMAGING-356
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAGING-356
> Project: Commons Imaging
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Format: TIFF
> Affects Versions: 1.0
> Reporter: Gary Lucas
> Priority: Major

> I am using the latest code from github (1.0-SNAPSHOT downloaded from github
> of June 2023) to read a 300 megabyte TIFF file. Version 1.0-alpha3 required
> 673 milliseconds to read that file. The new code requires upward of 15
> minutes. Clearly something got broken since the last release.
> The TIFF file is a 10000x10000 pixel 4 byte image format organized in strips.
> The bottleneck appears to occur in the TiffReader getTiffRawImageData method
> which reads raw data from the file in preparation of creating a BufferedImage
> object.
> I suspect that there may be a general slowness of file access. In debugging,
> even reading the initial metadata (22 TIFF tags) took a couple of seconds.
