Re: Fop speed improvements

2001-10-12 Thread Karen Lease

Hi Pablo,

I ran your xml and xsl files on my machine (800MHz, 256Mb RAM, Linux,
JDK 1.3) and it ran in a 7 seconds using the fop command line from
0.20.2, which includes loading all the Java classes.

It does look like you could generate more efficient FO, because your XSL
currently makes one table for each line, each containing just one row.
You could probably use 1 table with many rows instead. Also you are
generating a couple of tables which have no table-column elements at
all, which fop doesn't understand and skips. Try testing and refining
your stylesheet using the command line interface. You can also just use
an XSLT engine to generate an FO file directly so that you can see
exactly what you are sending to FOP.

However that isn't enough to explain the extreme slowness you see. There
must be some other place in your servlet which is taking time.

Good luck,
Karen Lease

Hi, Pablo,

I don't think fop is that slow. I have a pc (Pentium 200, 32M memory,
jdk 1.2), the average rendering time for one page is about 3 - 4 seconds. My
pc at work (Pentium 700, 128M memory, jdk1.3) render one page in 1 to 2
seconds.

Hi all,
This is the second message I post about fop performance and I didn't got
any answer; is there a way
to make it faster or "useable".
I'm generating a pdf from a servlet and although it's very easy to use,
it's VERY slow and causes the browser to raise a timeout exception. I'm
using a Pentium III 500 + 500 Mb + jdk1.3 machine and it takes 5 minutes  to
get a 2 pages document with no graphics, just one big table with 5
columns...

Am I doing something wrong or fop is not ready for "real-life" ?

Thanks in advance,
Pablo.-

Re: Fop speed improvements

2001-10-11 Thread Pablo Iaria

The arquitecture I have is:

1) I call a stored procedure that answers a cursor.
2) Traversing that cursor I build the xml file.
3) I transform the xml file with a xsl to get a .fo
4) Finally I use fo to get the PDF file.

The most time consuming task is the transfomation performed in step 4 & 5.

Thanks,

Would you mind sharing the XSL-FO of this document?
We are currently studying how far optimizing FO code (just on one example

interested in comparing your FO constructs.

Re: Fop speed improvements

There are disclaimers stating that Fop is not ready for production level use.
However many of us use it.
I can generate 2+ page pdfs with graphics in less than 30 seconds...this is just
to give you an idea. I a using JDK1.2.2 with 512MB of RAM
If you could paste/attach your servlet code or the xml, xsl files someone might
be able to take a look at  it to see if something is going on there.

Hrm - the XSLs (written by a third party) that I'm using are triple nested
includes - so basically I have one file, which includes two files, and in
those files two more files are included which is where the actual data gets
populated.  Could this be part of the hit in performance I'm seeing?

Re: FOP Speed

2001-09-06 Thread Jeremias Maerki

If you're using Xalan as XSLT processor you might want to look at XSLTC:
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/xsltc_usage.html

This compiles XSLT stylesheets into Java classes. Didn't try it, yet,
though.

Or you might want to consider caching the stylesheet if you don't do it
already. That's what I do. Loading a stylesheet is indeed a relatively
expensive operation. But this all still does not account for ten seconds
of processing time, if you ask me.

Re: FOP Speed

2001-09-06 Thread Jeremias Maerki

I wouldn't call that complex. I'm doing similar things (more than 50
fields, 1-2 pages, 2 images) in less than half a second (XSLT+FOP).
Maybe you really have something wierd in your XSLT. Have you been able
to identify if it's FOP or XSLT that takes such a long time?

No, it is implemented within a server.  How do you define 'complex'
document?  I am filling in many fields into the document, maybe 50 - 60 at
least.  Only one image.

I hope you don't start a new VM each time you want to process a document.
If not, are you trying to render particularly complex documents or big
images?

I hope you don't start a new VM each time you want to process a document.
If not, are you trying to render particularly complex documents or big
images?
