I let gpdf go for 20 min CPU on a moderately fast (1 GHz) laptop, and
it still didn't display.  By the way, I noticed that the process
eating all the CPU time is not actually gpdf, but Gnome-pdf-viewer.
This process also expands to use about 12 MB of memory
(I don't understand how these two interact.)  Xpdf displays the
document in about 1 second.  (It ends up using about 9 MB.
