Michael Osipov commented on DOXIA-554: -------------------------------------- How are we supposed to fix this issue? We can't, since this is a pegdown problem. I am inclined to close this one as wontfix. You can, of course, create an issue and PR which migrates the Markdown Doxia Module away from pegdown to flexmark-java. > Parsing time for Markdown documents can take very long an hang site generation > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: DOXIA-554 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOXIA-554 > Project: Maven Doxia > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Module - Markdown > Affects Versions: 1.7 > Reporter: Michael Benz > Attachments: maven-pom-sample-pegdown-performance.zip > > > The parsing time for Markdown documents can take very long an hang site > generation when e.g. long tables are being generated. > The author of pegdown has marked the pegdown project deprecated since > 14.12.2016 [pegdown.org / > https://github.com/sirthias/pegdown/](http://pegdown.org) and advises to > switch to [flexmark-java] (https://github.com/vsch/flexmark-java). > {quote} > The project is essentially unmaintained with tickets piling up and crucial > bugs not being fixed. > pegdown's parsing performance isn't great. In some cases of pathological > input runtime can even become exponential, which means that the parser either > appears to "hang" completely or abort processing after a time-out. > {quote} > Since the parsing timeout was increased in [DOXIA-498] it is now possible to > "hang" the site creation with a longer table like the one in this example. > In case this sample is rendered using version 3.3 of the maven site -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
