Server is Edubuntu 8.10 32bit
Clients are Diskless Workstations PXE 1422's

We're having a slight problem with Adobe Reader 8.whatever being somewhat
slow on our thin clients.  The screen updates are what's slow - the file is
already downloaded completely and displayed.  We're running on a
big-phat-juicy server, so the problem isn't going to be in lack of
processing power there.  So I'm wondering what some workarounds or other
options there are.

1. If we ran Adobe Reader as a local app, would that help or hinder?  Does
anyone have experience with that? and if so, what are the configuration
steps necessary to make that happen?

2. What are some other alternative PDF reader programs available that have
similar capabilities as Adobe Reader, but would be faster to render?  Ex: We
need to be able to view thumbnails, and also to be able to read annotations.

Thanks.
