Hi In my test setup, I have encountered something really weird with the current SVN snapshot of PDFBox: setting a PDTextField entry for the first time in a PDF will stall PDFBox for 10 or more seconds. Here is a trace:
--> [01.20.pp] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=true PERFORMANCE: [01.20.pp completed in 34ms] --> [01.20.c] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=false PERFORMANCE: [01.20.c completed in 1ms] --> [01.20.g] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=false PERFORMANCE: [01.20.g completed in 0ms] --> [01.20.e] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=false PERFORMANCE: [01.20.e completed in 1ms] PERFORMANCE: [01.20 completed in 1ms] --> [01.010.hkname] Setting PDTextField: value=Rataplan Ltd. maxlen=30 curlen=13 PERFORMANCE: [01.010.hkname completed in 11103ms] --> [01.010.hkkontakt] Setting PDTextField: value=Kramer maxlen=30 curlen=6 PERFORMANCE: [01.010.hkkontakt completed in 6ms] --> [01.010.hktel] Setting PDTextField: value=00490009009 maxlen=-1 curlen=11 [...] PERFORMANCE: [OVERALL completed in 11637ms] This happens always with the first PDTextField. Exluding the currently first entry "01.010.hkname" in the code, only shifts the issue to the next PDTextField entry. When I disable the handling of the PDTextField part alltogether, the code runs very fast: --> [01.20.pp] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=true PERFORMANCE: [01.20.pp completed in 23ms] --> [01.20.c] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=false PERFORMANCE: [01.20.c completed in 0ms] --> [01.20.g] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=false PERFORMANCE: [01.20.g completed in 1ms] --> [01.20.e] Setting PDCheckbox: checked=false PERFORMANCE: [01.20.e completed in 0ms] [...] PERFORMANCE: [OVERALL completed in 141ms] What's going on here? Best regards Roberto
