Philipp Ottlinger commented on RAT-340:
---------------------------------------
[~romain.manni-bucau] v0.16 (to be announced soon!) introduced the new SPDX
feature; its performance implications are also part of
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-325
> Make processing multi-threaded.
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: RAT-340
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-340
> Project: Apache Rat
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.17
> Reporter: Claude Warren
> Priority: Major
>
> This should be an epic of some sort.
> I believe that 0.17 is much slower than 0.16
> I also believe that the process could benefit from making the process
> multi-threaded.
> To do this:
> * The IHeaderMatcher implementations will need to be made thread safe.
> * IReport will have to queue reports for processing and will need to detect
> when the queue is full and wait for space.
> * The RatReport/IReport interface will have to be examined to ensure that
> multiple threads can report completed reports and have them correctly
> reflected in the resulting XML while still performing the modifications that
> some IReport implementations perform.
> * Standard Java thread pooling will need to be added.
