> Drawing lines in a PDF (and also other operations) writes the coordinates to
> the content stream. Currently, the
> PDAbstractContentStream#writeOperand(float) method uses the NumberFormat
> class to convert the float values. This is inefficient for multiple reasons:
> * NumberFormat is designed to format numbers locale dependent. That is not
> needed in this case
> * NumberFormat uses a pattern to format the value which is also not needed in
> this case
> * The formatting first creates a String object, converts it to a byte array
> with ASCII encoding and then writes it to the stream. This generates a lot of
> garbage.
> A different approach to formatting real operands should be used.
