Last modified: 2009-11-02 09:45:26 UTC
When loading a complex pdf file evince takes 100% of the cpu for over than 2 minutes to display the file
The file load quite instantly with foxit reader on windows (on the same machine) The file can be downloaded at http://www.stib.be/irj/go/km/docs/STIB-MIVB/INTERNET/attachments/Plan_reseau/20080211_plan.pdf
please see also bug 523374
Another PDF document that maxes out the CPU for a few minutes is attached to bug 558180. Evince also does not mis-renders the text in this document - the letters run into each other.
Poppler issue, as I said in bug #523374. Thanks for reporting.
