[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-4080) Improve memory consumption of PDAbstractAppearanceHandler

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4080?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16354640#comment-16354640 ]

Mhmm - I might be mistaken but the ScratchFile seems to be intented when reading a document not when generating a new one. E.g. {{COSOutputStream}} is not using the ScratchFile even if you could pass one for output. So it needs more changes. 

{{COSDocument}} allows access to the scratch file or we could use {{COSDocument.createCOSStream()}} to create a {{COSStream}} which uses the {{ScratchFile}} {{COSDocument}} uses.

I'm even not sure that it's worth the effort at that point in time - what about looking if we really get memory issues before starting to optimize. There is a lot of linking and passing objects 'only' to use the ScratchFile.

> PDAbstractAppearanceHandler calls new COSStream(), this has a huge memory footprint (PDFBOX-3868 and PDFBOX-3852). We'd need to find a way to pass the document, or the document scratch file, or there will be trouble for files with many annotations, e.g. a long scientific document with many footnotes.
