Performance degradation on Document.updateFields() since 23.3

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hello, we were going to update Aspose.Words Java to the latest version (23.6) and noticed a huge performance degradation of Document.updateFields() method. Trying other versions I noticed that it was introduced in version 23.3

Example document: example_performance.docx (1.8 MB)

Example code fragment:

Document document = new Document("example_performance.docx");

long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
document.updateFields();
long end = System.currentTimeMillis();

System.out.println("updateFields() took " + (end - start) + " ms");

Since version 23.3 Document.updateFields() takes 3-4x more time to execute compared to 23.2.
