Dear User group,

I have recently upgraded to Glassfish 3.0.1 from GF 2.0.

I am having an issue whereby PNG images are causing the rendering of PDFs to go 
very slowly in Glassfish 3.0.1 on Win XP (not tried on Solaris yet)

The issue is the same with FOP 1.0 / 1.1 -  what is impacting the speed is 
changing from XML Graphics 1.4 to 1.5

In GF 3.0.1 with fop 1.0 and xmlGraf 1.4 my pdf renders in approx 60-65 secs !
In GF 3.0.1 with fop 1.0 and xmlGraf 1.5 my pdf renders in approx 14-17  secs !

Bear in mind that In GF 2.0 with fop 1.0 and xmlGraf 1.4 my pdf renders in 
approx 5 secs  == nice

I have used Visual VM sampler to see that the methods that are taking the 
majority of the time are :
In xmlGraf 1.4  - 
org.apache.xmlgraphics.ps.ImageEncodingHelper.encodeRenderedImageAsRGB() - 
consuming 58 out of the 63 seconds taken to render
In xmlGraf 1.5 - 
org.apache.xmlgraphics.ps.ImageEncodingHelper.optimizedWriteTo() - consuming 14 
out of the 17 seconds taken to render

When I remove the pngs from the folder where they are expected by FOP the PDF 
renders at normal speed - in about 5 seconds or so

I am trying to get our designer to recreate the pngs as Jpegs as they are 
rendering at normal speed in the new GF, but the scaling is all wrong and it's 
going to take time to play with bit depth etc...

Would just like to stick with the PNGs

Any assistance would be appreciated.  Thanks
