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.
