Title:
  memory leak in evince: using gigabytes of ram when selecting text

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I select text in a certain pdf, evince consumes hundreds of MBs
  to a few GBs of RAM. This ram is not freed on deselection. High CPU
  usage accompanies the RAM allocation.

  version: evince 3.4.0
  OS: ubuntu 12.04 fully updated.

  Steps to reproduce: Open the pdf I have attached and attempt to select
  around a page of text. Keep a system monitor or a terminal open so you
  can kill it easily if your system freezes for lack of RAM.
