Julien Massiera commented on TIKA-3695:
---------------------------------------
I took a better look at the code and indeed I can't see better option than
adding limitations to the "set" and "add" methods of the original Metadata
object. Obviously the first option is not conceivable and the third seems too
complex

> Key: TIKA-3695
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3695
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: metadata
> Affects Versions: 1.28.1, 2.3.0
> Reporter: Julien Massiera
> Priority: Major
>
> Some files may contain abnormally big metadata (several MB, be it for the
> metadata values, the metadata names, but also for the total amount of
> metadata) that can be problematic concerning the memory consumption.
> It would be great to develop a new LimitingMetadataFilter so that we can
> filter out the metadata according to different bytes limits (on metadata
> names, metadata values and global amount of metadata)
