The page in question displays a bunch of plots with many many dots. sysprof says that most of the time is spent in cairo, stroking and filling some paths. Part of the problem is that this PDF is just very poorly made. pdf_inspector hangs while dumping a ton of data to the console: m 3349.42 6798.69 c 3349.42 6802.36 3346.44 6805.34 3342.77 6805.34 c 3339.09 6805.34 3336.11 6802.36 3336.11 6798.69 c 3336.11 6795.02 3339.09 6792.04 3342.77 6792.04 c 3346.44 6792.04 3349.42 6795.02 3349.42 6798.69 f m 3349.42 6798.69 c 3349.42 6802.36 3346.44 6805.34 3342.77 6805.34 c 3339.09 6805.34 3336.11 6802.36 3336.11 6798.69 c 3336.11 6795.02 3339.09 6792.04 3342.77 6792.04 c 3346.44 6792.04 3349.42 6795.02 3349.42 6798.69 S (repeated a ton with different numbers) That is, a moveTo, some curveTo, and then a stroke or a fill. The two paths are identical, which is a first sign of the PDF being weird. :-) You would think that could be simply a fill on a larger path. I also looked around the PDF file itself to see if the paths were referenced from somewhere and poppler was copying them without making cairo cache something. This is not the case. The stream with the contents of that page (the /Page is 141 0 R with /Contents 142 0 R) contains (under a /FlateDecode) about 12,000 lines worth of 2200.18 6576.24 m 2200.18 6579.91 2197.2 6582.89 2193.52 6582.89 c 2189.85 6582.89 2186.87 6579.91 2186.87 6576.24 c 2186.87 6572.57 2189.85 6569.59 2193.52 6569.59 c 2197.2 6569.59 2200.18 6572.57 2200.18 6576.24 c S 2197.68 6609.51 m 2197.68 6613.18 2194.7 6616.16 2191.03 6616.16 c 2187.36 6616.16 2184.38 6613.18 2184.38 6609.51 c 2184.38 6605.84 2187.36 6602.86 2191.03 6602.86 c 2194.7 6602.86 2197.68 6605.84 2197.68 6609.51 c f So, the PDF really just contains that many drawing commands, and cairo is a wonderful little speed demon. That said, it may still be poppler's fault. I tried loading it with Okular (on Ubuntu Jaunty's system poppler; the dev one crashed under LD_LIBRARY_PATH... ABI change?) and it also hangs. Also, evinces gives me the following errors: Error: Unable to allocate memory for image. Error: Unable to allocate memory for image. Error: Unable to allocate memory for image. Error: Unable to allocate memory for image. By adding extra debug outputs, they're HUGE allocations. On the order of 1-2GB, with the last two overflowing a signed int. Somehow, I suspect this is not the right thing to do. :-) Will investigate further...
