Given an algebraic germ of a plane curve at the origin, in terms of a bivariate polynomial, we analyze the complexity of computing an irreducible decomposition up to any given truncation order. With a suitable representation of the irreducible components, and whenever the characteristic of the ground field is zero or larger than the degree of the germ, we design a new algorithm that involves a nearly linear number of arithmetic operations in the ground field plus a small amount of irreducible univariate polynomial factorizations.
