Otimizar o Desempenho da Comparação de Documentos: Escalar para Milhões de Arquivos com Node.js

When processing thousands of documents, sequential comparison becomes a bottleneck. GroupDocs.Comparison for Node.js via Java enables document comparison performance optimization through batch processing, parallel execution, and configurable API settings. This guide demonstrates how to scale document comparison operations to handle millions of files efficiently using GroupDocs.Comparison’s built-in performance features.

O que é Otimização de Performance de Comparação de Documentos?

Performance optimization improves document comparison speed and throughput. Instead of processing documents one-by-one, you process multiple documents simultaneously using parallel execution and batch processing techniques.

GroupDocs.Comparison provides several optimization features:

• Parallel batch processing: Compare multiple document pairs simultaneously
• Configurable comparison options: Tune sensitivity and features for speed
• Efficient resource management: Control memory and CPU usage
• Scalable architecture: Handle large volumes without performance degradation

In real-world testing with GroupDocs.Comparison, processing 25 Word documents sequentially takes 3.09 seconds (8.1 documents per second). With parallel processing, the same batch completes faster by utilizing multiple CPU cores simultaneously.

Casos de Uso Comuns para Comparação de Documentos em Grande Volume

GroupDocs.Comparison handles high-volume scenarios:

• Version control: Compare thousands of document versions
• Compliance auditing: Batch process documents against templates
• Content migration: Verify accuracy during system migrations
• CI/CD pipelines: Automated document change detection
• Legal review: Process large volumes of contracts and agreements
• Content management: Synchronize and verify documents across systems

All these scenarios benefit from GroupDocs.Comparison’s batch processing and parallel execution capabilities.

• GenerateSummaryPage: Control summary generation for faster processing
• DetectStyleChanges: Disable style detection when not needed

Suporte Multi‑Formato

GroupDocs.Comparison supports Word (DOCX, DOC), PDF, Excel, PowerPoint, images, emails, and more. The API handles format-specific optimizations automatically, ensuring efficient processing across different document types.

Arquitetura Server‑Side

GroupDocs.Comparison operates as a backend API, ideal for server-side batch processing. No client-side installation required, making it perfect for cloud deployments and automated workflows.

Exemplo de Código: Comparação Paralela em Lote com GroupDocs.Comparison

This example demonstrates GroupDocs.Comparison’s parallel batch processing capabilities:

Etapa 1: Comparação de Documento Único

First, create a function to compare a single document pair using GroupDocs.Comparison:

const groupdocs = require('@groupdocs/groupdocs.comparison');

async function compareWordPair(sourcePath, targetPath, outputPath, options = {}) {
  const startTime = Date.now();
  
  try {
    // GroupDocs.Comparison Comparer initialization
    const comparer = new groupdocs.Comparer(sourcePath);
    comparer.add(targetPath);

    // Use GroupDocs.Comparison CompareOptions for optimization
    const compareOptions = options.compareOptions || null;
    if (compareOptions) {
      await comparer.compare(outputPath, compareOptions);
    } else {
      await comparer.compare(outputPath);
    }

    return {
      success: true,
      duration: Date.now() - startTime,
      outputPath
    };
  } catch (error) {
    return {
      success: false,
      duration: Date.now() - startTime,
      error: error.message
    };
  }
}

Etapa 2: Processamento em Lote Paralelo

Next, implement parallel batch processing to handle multiple documents:

async function compareBatchParallel(documentPairs, options = {}, concurrency = 5) {
  const startTime = Date.now();
  const results = [];

  // Process batches with controlled concurrency
  for (let i = 0; i < documentPairs.length; i += concurrency) {
    const batch = documentPairs.slice(i, i + concurrency);
    
    const batchResults = await Promise.all(
      batch.map(pair => compareWordPair(
        pair.source,
        pair.target,
        pair.output,
        options
      ))
    );

    results.push(...batchResults);
  }

  const totalDuration = Date.now() - startTime;
  const succeeded = results.filter(r => r.success).length;
  const throughput = (succeeded / (totalDuration / 1000)).toFixed(2);

  return {
    total: documentPairs.length,
    succeeded,
    failed: documentPairs.length - succeeded,
    totalDuration,
    throughput: `${throughput} documents/second`,
    results
  };
}

Etapa 3: Exemplo de Uso

Finally, use GroupDocs.Comparison with optimized settings:

async function main() {
  const documentPairs = [
    { source: 'source/doc1.docx', target: 'target/doc1.docx', output: 'output/result1.docx' },
    { source: 'source/doc2.docx', target: 'target/doc2.docx', output: 'output/result2.docx' }
  ];

  // Configure GroupDocs.Comparison CompareOptions for performance
  const compareOptions = new groupdocs.CompareOptions();
  compareOptions.setSensitivityOfComparison(75); // Performance tuning
  compareOptions.setGenerateSummaryPage(true);

  const results = await compareBatchParallel(
    documentPairs,
    { compareOptions },
    5 // Parallel concurrency
  );

  console.log(`Processed ${results.succeeded} documents`);
  console.log(`Throughput: ${results.throughput}`);
}

compareOptions.setSensitivityOfComparison(75);

// Control summary page generation
compareOptions.setGenerateSummaryPage(true); // or false for faster processing

// Disable style detection if not needed
// compareOptions.setDetectStyleChanges(false);

Escolha a Concorrência Ótima

Based on benchmark results, optimal concurrency depends on system resources:

• Small systems: Concurrency 3-5 (10.49-13.28 docs/sec)
• Medium systems: Concurrency 5-7 (13.28+ docs/sec)
• Large systems: Concurrency 10+ (16.08+ docs/sec)

Test different concurrency levels with your document types and system configuration to find the optimal setting.
