[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] Rendering images from PDF files slower in OpenJDK

[Philip Race]

I've spent some time examining what pdfbox is passing to ColorConvertOp
It is called about 10 or 11 times in this test with images typically 
1-2K in each dimension.
The input image is a Custom BufferedImage which uses an ICC_ColorSpace 
constructed
from a color profile file that is embedded in pdfbox which is an open 
source equivalent
of what Acrobat uses. It has a 4 component raster and is opaque

This is filtered into a 3 component standard INT_RGB ColorModel.

I've distilled this down into a small program which has an copy of the 
method
that is defined in pdfbox and is invoking the supposedly slow 
ColorConvertOp.

So I believe this is all exactly what is happening in pdfbox.

What I find is that it is actually much faster on JDK11 than JDK 8.

prrubuntu:~$ ~/jdk-11/bin/java CConv
4881
prrubuntu:~$ ~/jdk8u181/bin/java CConv
12529


I can't say why that would be but the results are clear.
So I am left to suppose that pdfbox really is doing something different 
in 8 vs 11.
Or that this not the real problem. What do others see ?

I've attached the program. The 1Mb color profile file can be got from 
the pdfbox sources.
