Description Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-04-22 22:24:09 UTC 
I opened a proceeding, searched by 'forge' and evince got stuck in 59%.  I had tried searching with other documents of >140 pages and I could not reproduce the problem.  Neither with smaller documents.

I am not attaching the document because is big (1.6MB) and I am not sure about its copyright (usually these are behind a paywall).  However, I found a link that would make the trick for you to reproduce the error:

http://opensource.ucc.ie/icse2003/3rd-WS-on-OSS-Engineering.pdf

Here is the stacktrace after I interrupted evince because it was taking too long.  FWIW, the 'thread exited' appeared after evince got stuck.

Quit anyway? (y or n)
Comment 1 José Aliste 2013-04-22 23:20:28 UTC 
Germán, the stacktrace suggests that this is a poppler bug. Did you try to reproduce using poppler-glib-demo?
Comment 2 José Aliste 2013-04-22 23:25:13 UTC 
it is actually a problem in poppler. Could you please forward the bug to their bugzilla?
Comment 3 Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-04-22 23:49:20 UTC 
I did not checking (I was in the middle of something else).  Now I reported it and I put the stacktrace of poppler-glib-demo, although it is the same.

Thanks!
