	Splitting out pages in a PDF can be time consuming, particularly for large multi-page PDFs. This is due to basic thread processing requirements. For every page in the file, Grooper must create a new object for each page, essentially drawing a new image for each page for each '''Batch Page''' object created. This "drawing" operation is called "rasterization". However, the '''Split Pages''' activity will utilize one processing thread per document folder in the '''Batch'''. If your documents are on the larger side, this can cause a bottleneck in your '''Batch Process''', waiting for '''Split Pages''' to finish rasterizing each page in the file.		Splitting out pages in a PDF can be time consuming, particularly for large multi-page PDFs. This is due to basic thread processing requirements. For every page in the file, Grooper must create a new '''Batch Page''' object for each page each with its own PDF content, essentially drawing a new image for each split page rendered (or, for each '''Batch Page''' object created). This "drawing" operation is called "rasterization". However, the '''Split Pages''' activity will utilize one processing thread per document folder in the '''Batch'''. If your documents are on the larger side, this can cause a bottleneck in your '''Batch Process''', waiting for '''Split Pages''' to finish rasterizing each page in the file.

	In '''Grooper Version 2021''', this process can be sped up with the ''Rasterize'' '''Execute''' command. The idea here is to apply the '''Split Pages''' activity to break out the PDF into ''un-rendered'' pages first. Then, fully render them with the ''Rasterize'' command. This speeds up the process by allowing the time consuming rendering and rasterizing of each page's image to run multithreaded, with one thread available to process each split '''Batch Page''' instead of each the single '''Batch Folder''' they were split from.
