I have a simple .csv file with ~400,000 line (one column only). It takes me a lot of time to read the records and process them.

The processor validating records against couchbase. The writer - writing into remote topic, takes me around 30 mins.

I read that `flatfileItemreader` is not thread-safe, so my chunk value is 1. I read the asynchronous processing could assist, but I can't see any improvements.

```

@EnableBatchProcessing
public class NotificationFileProcessUploadedFileJob {

    @Value("${expected.snid.header}")

    }

        return stepBuilderFactory.get("processSnidFileStep")

                .reader(snidFileReader(OVERRIDDEN_BY_EXPRESSION))
                .processor(asyncItemProcessor())
                .writer(asyncItemWriter())

How do you think I could improve the processing performances and make them faster?
