On my PC at work, the X server crashes very reliably when opening this
file and zooming in on it. I tried to obtain a backtrace, but the
methods described in the wiki lock up my system completely.

On my laptop, X does not crash; Evince simply eats up about 1.5 GB of
memory (of the 4GB available) after the Postscript interpreter crashed.

The PC of a colleague (identical to my own) does not crash either, but
starts swapping a lot since it only has 1GB of memory. The only
difference between his and mine PC is that I have an Nvidia graphics
cards and enabled the Compiz desktop effects. Could that be the culprit
of the crash?
