The current version has severe performance issues when analyzing some binary xls files. Updating to the latest plugin version solves the problem.

Thanks, I hadn't noticed the plugin was updated.
I'll check if it works well and merge it.

@rsaccani could you please share some xls samples that cause performance issues?
Thanks!

I tested the change after some necessary adaptations (783cf98), but when I try it on your sample, it still gets stuck somewhere in plugin_biff. There is a bug that needs to be fixed. :-/

A new version of plugin_biff was released with some "performance improvements". Applying them on the plugin file (with your patches) seems to fix it.

@pupaxxo I know, Didier made the fix after I told him about this issue. ;-)
I'm working on integrating it.
