Question
PE/Local composer performance with large PDFs
Hello all,
I'm using Editor and PE 5.4 M100, and I'm having difficulty publishing a large doc to PDF.
Ok, so the document itself is XML, ATA-style markup, and uses FOSI. It's roughly 2.2MB in size, contains references to about 200 bi-level TIFF graphic ents, and also contains several hundred instances of ID/IDREF pairs.
By turning off graphic display and gentext, I was able to get the document to load pretty quickly into the Editor (about 15 seconds). No completeness errors or anything.
Either sending this to PE or by using the local Print Composer (using distiller for PDF), I cannot get this document to render. I had my maxBusyInterval set to 30 minutes, and it considered the subprocess for this composition hung and restarted it. Other than that, I can get no indication of errors or issues that I can address. My PC for local composition is XP, with a dual-core Intel and 3Gb RAM.
The development server I'm using for PE has 4 quad-core CPUs and 48Gb of RAM.
Anyone have any ideas? I tried searching the adepters a few times, but for some reason the filtering isn't working on the site (selecting just Adepters for searching pulls in results for Windchill, ProE, ect).
Thanks,
-Jason
