Tweaks the getCharacter() method to improve performance.
> PDFBox performance issue: Encoding.java getCharacter() method tweak
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-603
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-603
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0-incubator
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Mel Martinez
> Attachments: Encoding.java
>
>
> During parsing / text extraction the Encoding.getCharacter(COSName) method is
> invoked repeatedly.
> It includes a string test that is performed up front but should only occur
> rarely. The code should be restructured slightly to only perform that test
> later. I.E. it should succeed fast and fail slow.
> I'll post an attachment that rewrites the method slightly. The performance
> gains is fairly significant.
