>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Rendering
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.5, 2.0.6, 2.0.7, 2.0.8
>         Environment: windows 10 / Linux

> When rendering an image at 300 dpi from the included PDF, my java process uses a huge amount of memory.
> The document is only 45 Kb in size and contains 2 pages, my JVM is unable to extract even 1 page with 3G of memory. Setting Xmx to 4G works but is not the solution I want.
> The error occurs when calling PDFRenderer.renderImageWithDPI()
> I already tried tweaking the memory usage in my application to use a scratch file while loading the document as well as avoiding caching of XObjects as described here: https://pdfbox.apache.org/2.0/faq.html#outofmemoryerror
> These didn't work.
> The issue can be reproduced using the pdfbox-app utility:
> java -Xmx3G -jar pdfbox-app-2.0.8.jar PDFToImage 
> HighMemoryFootprint.pdf -dpi 300 -color RGB -page 1
> What can not be changed?
> * 300 dpi will not be decreased.
> * Max Java memory will not be increased: 3GB is ridiculous for a 45kb PDF file.
