Hello , I am still upgrading from PDFBox 0.73 to PDFBox 1.4. The new version is very nice, better extracting results and more PDFs work fine with it. But I have noticed the extracting performance for the new version is much slower than version 0.73.
For example I have tested extracting the text from a 200 pages PDF (Page by page) using the 2 versions + Doing some little logic on the extracted data, and the result was very different: version 0.73: Took 4 seconds. version 1.4: Took 1 minute, 22 seconds. The results were better in version 1.4 a bit, but the time consumed is very big. Is there any way I can fasten the extraction process for the PDF data in version 1.4 ? Best regards , Hesham
