I am sooo sorry the performance is worse with the change for pre-loading the
PDFs in the test-case :(((((( the problem was that I ran the benchmarks with a
small mistake in my test case ...
The HEADER tests how to load flattened PDF part templates ...
The FOOTER tests how to load PDF part templates containing fields that need
to be populated.
The mistake was to leave fixed the HEADER always ... so it would load only the
flattened PDF template and not the footer (see below) [sigh] In any case is
good to know that loading flattened PDF parts is cheaper.
I mistakenly ran the last benchmark like this:
private static byte[] file2ByteArray(String filePath) throws Exception {
InputStream input = null;
ByteArrayOutputStream output = null;
try {
input = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(HEADER_PATH));
output = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int data = input.read();
while (data != -1) {
output.write(data);
data = input.read();
}
return output.toByteArray();
}
finally {
if (input != null) {
input.close();
}
if (output != null) {
output.close();
}
}
}
