Accepting Multiple Revisions is very slow

Dear Aspose Team,

I have a large Word document with a lot of revisions (Document.Revisions.Count > 22 000). Now I want to accept all Revisions that are older than e.g. 7 days.

That is why I cannot use the acceptAllRevisions() function.
Iterating over all revisions in one go also does not work, I either get an Exception from the RevisionsCollection or the Word document is broken afterwards (if I copy the revisions into a separate list).

The only way I got it working was to only take one item from the RevisionsCollection at a time and accepting that:

Revision r = doc.getRevisions().get(0);
while (r != null)
{
    r.accept();
    try
    {
        r = doc.getRevisions().get(0);
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        r = null;
    }
}

That way I could check the dates in there.

BUT, this is extremely slow, it takes multiple minutes to process the 20k revisions.
Is there a better way to do that?

See attached. I had to remove the information in the document but the revisions are still intact.
