Nah, profiling ain't digging deep, it's by far the quickest and easiest way
to find unexpected performance hogs.

Use a profiling tool? Or is that too obvious?

Dear Luis,

We do use several images, such as logos, barcodes and charts in our documents 
(imagine bank statement like documents).

What formats are the best (native) to make the process faster / smoother? We 
can tweak the images to suit what's best.

Thanks

Re: Improving FOP Performance

[Luis Bernardo]

Can you explain what you expected? The performance results really depend 
on the example you use. For instance, images can make a big difference, 
and depending on the type of image and the format output FOP may use a 
native or non native image loader which may result in significant 
performance differences.
