Performance degradation noticed (Plantuml taking long process time) if a macro has unbalanced parenthesis.

Question

Generating of svg's are taking long time when there are any macros with unbalanced parentheses(excluding parenthesis as special character) in UML code.

Ex: macro_name(para1, para2,  "x=y"))

In the above example, you can see extra closed parenthesis and Plantuml taking long time here to generate svg but it is working fast when we remove that extra parenthesis.

Can you please explain reason behind this ?

Thanks in advance.
