[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (MIME4J-5) Mime4j takes really long to
parse big messages
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-5?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12611366#action_12611366 ]

----------------------------------------------------------------
I spent a better part of today working on a more efficient header parsing code just to find out it cannot handle recursive parsing of base64 and quote-printable encoded messages (those that need to wrapped with a decoding input stream). Damn!
How important is the ability to recursively parse encoded messages? If it is, it looks like we will have to live with one byte read header parsing.
