PPT to PDF Сonversion in Java Is Extremely Slow and Crashes a Browser

Aspose.Slides Product Family
, ,
#1

Hello Andrey,

We were able to bypass the noclassdef found issue by making some POM changes…

However, we are observing 2 issues

  1. PPT to PDF conversion is extremely slow and crashes the browser. A four page report took about 6 mins to download.

  2. The same pdf gets emailed out. We are unable to open the PDF. It says the file is corrupted.

We do not see any errors in the logs at this time. We are changing the debug levels and will keep you posted if we see errors.

Please help with the above 2 issues.

thanks
Pawan

@pawann,

Could you please clarify how I can see the same problem?

#5

hi andrey,

we deployed our application in the test env with the aspose slides jar one at a time and ran the same tests… we have provided the results.

With the older jar, the performance is much better. result.pdf (173.1 KB)
result-vs-empty.pdf (280.8 KB)

Uploaded the pds’s again…

#6

@pawann,
Could you clarify how you measured the conversion time?
Also please measure the time only for the following code:

Presentation ppt = new Presentation("vs empty 2.pptx"); // and "aspose bi test.pptx"
ppt.save("output1.pdf", SaveFormat.Pdf); // and "output2.pdf"
#7

The time was from postman when making the REST API call for the standalone code.

Also please measure the time only for the following code:
I also measured time as per the request , still I’m seeing the same slowness

Results for the BI PPT time measurements for the following code only

Presentation ppt = new Presentation("vs empty 2.pptx"); // and "aspose bi test.pptx"
ppt.save("output1.pdf", SaveFormat.Pdf); // and "output2.pdf

@pawann,
Unfortunately, our developers are unable to reproduce the issue you are experiencing. The conversion takes ~2 seconds with both versions 21.2 and 22.12. Could you provide a sample project to reproduce the issue?

#10

When you say project - what do you mean? we created a api end point with the code I shared above and deployed it on our servers.
Did your team try the test on the same OS/ java ?

Please let me know what I can provide. We need to solve this at the earliest. At this time, we have a message put up on our production application for users to not use PDF.

Please note users can choose to download between a PPT and PDF. PPT works fine. only PDF is the problem

#11

@pawann,

We mean a Java project that we can compile and reproduce the problem you are experiencing.

Our developers tested the problem in the same environment.

#12

Hello Andrey,

We are working on approvals to provide the project. Will provide by Monday.
Please keep this ticket open

thanks
Pawan
