I'm currently running Intrepid and the problem is *not* fixed. I was
wondering why my system was still using a lot of memory despite the fact
I didn't have that many apps running. So I closed all by one of the
evince documents and checked memory use:

according to upstream this is already fixed on svn:
This is already fixed, it requires poppler = 0.8.

As the original submitter I can confirm that the memory problems are no
longer apparent in Intrepid - evince 2.23.5, libpoppler 0.8.4 (cairo).
Large page-scanned documents open and page fine, as far as I can see,
without eating memory to any noticeable extent.
Thanks everyone for getting this
What is the progress on this bug? I echo the sentiments of mp - this
should be higher priority!

How does a memory leak in the default viewer of one of the most used
document formats remain unimportant across several distributions?
I cannot quite fathom what would constitute something of importance.

I can confirm this bug in Hardy Heron x86_64. A small scanned file
quickly uses over 400MB of memory. strongAlso/strong, Evince does
not free up all the memory when I close the offending document.
Case: (All listed memoryusage is only for the evince-process)
I open two non-scanned mostly text
For what it's worth, this is definitely not resolved in Ubuntu Hardy - I
had a 300 KB PDF using 900 MB of RAM earlier today. It was an old
research artcle that had been scanned in, and although it was OCR'd,
Evince was still treating it as an image for memory purposes (although I
could copy text
tweedledee: Yes, as I mentioned above, this is only partially fixed,
serious issues remain.
The Evince devs intend to implement tiled rendering (which should fix
this) for the next version in 6 months, so we can hope for that.

Partially fixed, as I understand it. The images issue I mention in my
comment above has been solved, however, the other issue of tiled
rendering has been postponed for GNOME 2.24. Both issues are fairly
serious, so this is good progress, but there are still PDFs on which
Evince is not usable on

What I believe is the main cause of this bug has been discovered.
Details are in a comment I left on the GNOME bug report.
Briefly, the issue is that in scanned PDFs, each page contains an image.
Evince, unlike simpler viewers, allows users to copy images. Problem is,
the images are prepared in

There is now a formal bug on the GNOME bugzilla tracker about this
matter,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504913
Perhaps people from here can add comments confirming the issue, example
PDF files on which it occurs, etc., so the Evince devs are convinced of
the severity of this issue.
In regards to Jesse's comment: I tested a few files on my computer and
noticed the same sort of pattern using Gutsy. If I use a PDF that has
embedded fonts, Evince works fine; a 7 MB PDF uses 20-40 MB of RAM as I
scroll many times throughout the document, depending mostly on when
figures are
Ok, perhaps some progress on this matter.
This bothered me enough to try to get something done, so I talked to one
of the Evince devs. Turns out part of the problem is that Evince always
caches 2 pages forward and back. So even if you are viewing a single
page, you have 5 pages rendered in
I just wanted to add that I've noticed a pattern to what sets off the
extreme memory usage. If I open a file with embedded type 1 fonts, i.e.
one generated by pdftex or the built-in generator in openoffice, it
works just like it used to in feisty. But if I try to open a pdf that is
scanned in or
I've since discovered a way to kill evince when it freezes my system:
First press Ctrl+Alt+SysRq+R and then press Ctrl+Alt+SysRq+F. This
should kill the process that is abusing your memory most and make your
system useable again.

Same problem here, I think. I'm working on a 500 page LaTeX document
which compiles to a 25mb pdf.
If I scroll too much, evince just eats up ALL of my 1gb of memory AND my
1.2gb of swap.
It actually looks like it keeps eating memory for a while even after I
stop scrolling. Sometimes I catch it
Sometimes is eats all memory very quickly - and sometimes it takes other
apps down with when it crashes (this could be a Gnome thing, i dunnow).

To add to my earlier comment, I also very much disagree with the low
priority.
This bug that has the unexpectedly taken down my session and all unsaved
work in it multiple times makes using Evince an unacceptable risk.

Same problem here.
If I open 4-5-6 .pdfs 7-800MB RAM is used up and soon all swap space too
- then Evince finally crashes/shuts down by itself.
I wonder how such an annoying bug - which basically render the computer
useless in a matter of minutes - in the default viewer for one of the
most used
I can also confirm this bug on Gutsy.
As with others here, on Feisty Evince was reasonable, but on Gutsy
things are out of control. I simply cannot use Evince (I am using xpdf
for now). One example is a 2.6MB PDF (I can post it here if it can
help), that when opened in Evince causes 300+ MB of
I have the same issue. Under Feisty everything was fine (maybe a bit
slower). After I've upgraded to Gutsy (new evince) the problems started.
If I open a 2.3 MB ( ~ 220 pages) pdf file (manual text with some black
white pictures), the evince memory usage goes up to 50 MB. If I
start to browse
I have just upgraded to Gutsy, and I also experience very high memory
usage -- it makes the computer unresponsive after a while. (Gutsy is
now released.) This happens even if the pdf files are not large.

The issue is memory usage. Evince is just as snappy as before (maybe a
little bit better in that regard due to the rendering improvements),
it's just that the memory usage seems to grow and grow without bound. I
have noticed this on many PDFs in Gutsy and never noticed such a problem

The bug is not clear, is your issue the speed or the memory usage? Do

I am also experiencing a very bad regression in gutsy with respect to
memory usage in evince. Evince has always used a lot of memory, but it
seems much, much worse in Gutsy. For example, this document:

OK, following Sebastian's question about the video card and driver I checked
with the Mesa driver for my ATI Radeon Express 200M card. The glitch continues
in evince with very large pdf files, even without the proprietary fglrx driver.
