Jakov Vežić commented on PDFBOX-5169:
-------------------------------------

In the meantime, managed to get this merge running on Windows with 3.0.0RC1, 
using

 
{code:java}
java -jar pdfbox-app-3.0.0-RC1.jar merge -o=out.pdf -i=1.pdf -i=2.pdf
{code}
however, it takes a really long time on 6-core CPU to complete - about 4 
minutes. The PDF it produces hangs almost immediately when opened with Acrobat 
Reader, and gives out "not responding" so I have to force close it. Opening the 
PDF in Chrome works flawlessly however, which is weird.

> large, while the output file is just over 400 MB large. The action also
