Re: Apache FOP - nested table based layout issue

This is about performance of nested-table based layout
using Apache(0.20.4).

This is a processor specific question and would have been
better asked on fop-user.

Apache FOP processor seems to take a really long time
(about 30 secs for a 20 page PDF)to render. Is this a page design issue or is it Apache processor
unable to deal with nested tables ?

Nested tables per se aren't a problem. However, tables in
general use a lot of memory, and it is possible the you
simply see the effect of disproportionally prevalent GC.

Dose any one know ? Or can anyone suggest a alternate
solution to my problem ?

Don't use tables. Okok, I mean get a faster machine.
More seriously, check whether increasing the memory settings
improves the performance.
