Nicolas Daniels updated PDFBOX-3284:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
I'm trying to parse a quite big PDF (26MB) and transform it to text, however 
I'm facing a huge memory consumption leading to out of memory error. Running my 
test with -Xmx768M will always fail. I've to increase to 1500 GB to make it 
work. 
The resulting text is only 3MB so I don't understand why it is taking so much 
memory.

The pdf can be found 
[here|https://www2.swift.com/uhbonline/books/public/en_uk/clr_3_0_stdsmx_msg_def_rpt_sch/sr2015_mx_clearing_3dot0_mdr2_solution.pdf]

My code:

{code:title=Test.java|borderStyle=solid}
@Test
public void testParsePdf_Content_Memory() throws Exception {
{
    InputStream inputStream = 
getClass().getResourceAsStream("c:/tmp/sr2015_mx_clearing_3dot0_mdr2_solution.pdf");
    try {
             StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
             FileWriter fileWriter = new FileWriter(new 
File("c:/tmp/test.txt"));

             PDFTextStripper pdfTextStripper = new PDFTextStripper();
             pdfTextStripper.writeText(PDDocument.load(inputStream), 
fileWriter);

             fileWriter.close();
    } finally {
        inputStream.close();
    }
}
{code}
