> When calling Raster#getPixel() in a loop, it is a good practice to make sure that the result array is allocated only once. SampledImageReader#getStencilImage() and PDImageXObject#applyMask() fail to do that. When rendering the attached example, this results in allocating 24 053 760 arrays containing 3 floats, which is about 0.5GB of data if my math is right. Also, I have noticed that SampledImageReader#getStencilImage() reads and sets the same data w/o modification if alpha of a pixel != 255. 
> After applying the attached patch, rendering time of the document drops from 8.5s to 7.4s. Not as much as I have expected - array allocation and the garbage collector seem to be fast - but still...
> Note: Rendering of the document is wrong, it does not find some of its fonts, but that is irrelevant for this issue.
