This appears to have been regressed somewhere. 15.04 with libpoppler 0.30 - a PDF that used to render instantly (and renders instantly using muPDF) now takes on average 10-15s to render a single page using Evince or Atril, or longer if focus is missing. As the behaviour is the same in both Evince and Atril, my assumption is that the issue is in poppler somewhere - PDF renderers that do not use poppler are ultrafast, those that use it are ultra slow. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325899 Title: evince is excruciatingly slow on some documents Status in Poppler: Invalid Status in poppler package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Evince is excruciatingly slow when displaying the book available for download at http://www.safetty.net/publications/pttes Scrolling can take several seconds and will often just display empty pages.

Hi, I am not the original poster, but I am affected by this bug too. I opened the file suggested by Florian, and evince as able to render it absolutely perfectly, and with no lag (I was also able to scroll with no problem). However, some files are still extremely slow to be rendered. I have attached an example. If you flip from page to page it might be OK, but if you start flipping quickly, it's extremely slow (I sometimes have to wait for 3+ seconds for a single page to be rendered).
