Hello,
I've now looked into this a bit deeper. The culprit is a loop that copies data
a single byte at a time from the InputStream into a DeferredFileOutputStream.
This loop is in the method InputStreamProvider.writeTo().
If the message body is delivered as a File instead of an InputStream, the
process is much faster, as the data transfer occurs in packages of 2048 bytes
in a loop at ProviderHelper.writeTo(), called by FileProvider.writeTo().
Still, as the data is copied verbatim from the source into a temporary file,
even when the input is itself a File object, the whole operation seems to be
quite a bit of waste of valuable resources.
Is there a way to entirely avoid the creation of this quite unnecessary
temporary file?
Alternatively, there seems to be a property for controlling the threshold for
the creation of this temporary file, which defaults to only 1 MB, in the
ApacheHttpClient4Executor class. What is the simplest way to tweak this
parameter from client code?

Subject: [Resteasy-users] Slow PUT request payload processing in client
framework
Hi,
I'm a new person on this list, and I have encountered an issue with the
RESTEasy Client Framework.
While trying to transfer a 7.5 MB file over a simple PUT request using the
client framework, the client freezes for minutes while very slowly building a
temporary file, with 100% CPU utilization. RESTEasy version is 2.3.5_final.
The behaviour is reproduced on a code as simple the one below. The temporary
file is built before even looking up the address of the server. I don't quite
understand why a temporary file is necessary in the first place.
Can others reproduce this problem or is it unique to my circumstances?
Code:
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.PUT;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import org.jboss.resteasy.client.ProxyFactory;
import org.junit.Test;
public class DummyTest {
@Path("/dummy")
interface DummyService {
@PUT
@Consumes("*/*")
String process( InputStream data );
}
@Test
public void test() throws FileNotFoundException {
DummyService service = ProxyFactory.create( DummyService.class,
"http://nonexistent.domain/rest/"; );
service.process( new FileInputStream( "<path to a large file>" ) );
}
}
