The problem seems to persist in Ubuntu 8.04 (Evince Document Viewer 2.22.1.1) I encountered it on the following file http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/c018939_ISO_IEC_10967-1_1994(E).zip
My machine has a measly 256MB RAM and it hits the swap partition hard. At that point the system becomes pretty much unusable. I use xpdf to view this file now. Of course things aren't fast there either but at least it doesn't eat up all my RAM and I can continue working. -- evince consumes a lot of memory (1.5 GB VM) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138343 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
