Evince uses a ton of memory viewing a certain PDF
Last modified: 2008-04-06 15:09:18 UTC
Viewing the brochure PDF on http://www.eagle-research.com/store/ (direct link: http://www.eagle-research.com/ERBrochure.pdf) uses way more memory (hundreds of MB) than other PDFs. On a PC running Ubuntu 7.10 with 512MB of RAM, evince will get killed off (OOM) when viewing this file.
