Nothing is not yet submitted, due to circumstances at work.
I think I can send a part of it next week that gives aboute 30% faster fop.

Hi,
What is the current status of this performance tuning.
Have the code changes been submitted and performance benefits
verified. I really could use some speed improvements with fop,
I have some very large reports 400/500 pages that are taking
5+ minutes to run.

Thanks,

Venu Reddy

P.S: I am willing to apply the code changes to my version
of fop(0.20.4), test it and submit the results on my large
fo files.

WOW!!!

 So what do I do to get the code in to the fop-project (the problems are
 both in the fop 0.20.4 and in the DEV 1.0).

 I have also figured out some more thing but they are not so general but it
 makes the FOP as fast as a comersial tool written in C++ (StreamServe).

could you make your patched version available somewhere???
if you don't have a server, just send it to my private mail and i'll put it

I don't know wether you already discussed this:
If you create indices, tocs and other page references, you might want to 
create them seperately and instead run fop several times on the same document 
(often fop is run repeatedly anyway), do it the way TeX does it. This might 
also speed up things a little.

Anyway, I create student guides for courses here, they also tend to be big, 
the same size as your docs. Usually it takes about 30-90 seconds to fop them 
or less (Laptop, Athlon XP 1600+).

Re: Performance tuning.

Hi Henrik

 I have started the task to create diffs.

Great.

 But it makes it a bit complecated since there are about 10 diffrent things 
 i have done to the code and some things affects more then 20 source files.
 
 So the question are: Do You want all the changes in one bunch or them 
 separated in 10 diffrent groups that belongs together?

Have you tried to run the diff from the src directory? Then, CVS
should create a diff that spans all modified files in this directory. I
hope this helps. Before I became a committer I used to do the diffing in
WinCVS and copy/paste the results together to a single file. But I heard
that's not best practice. I hope this helps.

Henrik,

that sounds very interesting. Normal procedures for sending changes is
to create a unified CVS diff file. You'll find some instructions
following the URL below:
http://xml.apache.org/source.html

It's best if you post the two diff files (against the maintenance branch
and the main branch) in a BugZilla entry, so it's not likely to get lost.
One of the committers (I'll try to do it during the weekend if you
can submit it it before then) will then review and apply the patch to
the codebase.

BugZilla is here: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/

Thanks a lot!

Hi Henrik,
whatever the FOP-developers say, I'd like 
totry andimplement your improvements in the project I'm working on. 
3 times as fast, it's a dream come true!
