             Summary: Cache glyph table to optimize concurrent access
                 Key: PDFBOX-3088
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3088
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: FontBox
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: ccouturi
            Priority: Minor


If several threads convert several pdf to png (one thread access to a single 
document at a time) they are a contention on a lock in GlythTable. Jstack shows 
that all threads are in state blocked on the synchronized block  in the 
getGlyph method. The lock is necessary it's ok, but degrades performance.

This patch cache glyphs already read. 
With the patch PDFBOX-3080, the follow benchmark compare 1000 pdf conversions 
with 1, 8, and 50 threads.

|| Simulation|| PDF 2.0-SNAPSHOT || With this patch + PDFBOX3080 ||
|| 1000 conversions / 1 thread || 120 s | 71 s|
|| 1000 conversions / 8 threads || 76 s | 28 s|
|| 1000 conversions / 50 threads || 81 s | 33 s|
