Good news, it seem to work after updating to 1.11 ( This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.11a (Web2C 7.5.2))
I get 797,077 test.pdf 1,078,539 test1.pdf and your test was 805,366 test.pdf 1,053,739 test1.pdf
(Does it depend from pdftex version ?)
Previous merging is also good: I have now 1,767,252 bytes (it was ~10Mbytes)
i used 1.10a for that test (1.11 is in my test suite) and there are indeed differences between pdftex versions: the latest greatest has a couple of optimizations, even more accuracy, a few more features etc. Also, the xpdf lib plays a role in producing code.
(version 1+ avoids redundant copies of objects when including multiple pages from a file)
