I never do that: I search in thumbnails instead. But for the purpose of telling you if and how it works on my system, I downloaded: https://www.scss.tcd.ie/~waldroj/3d1/arm_arm.pdf I did several searches, all of them returning within a second, or less. It didn't seem to take time at all. My okular is latest available version 4:20.04.0-1. (I'm so happy the version is so up to date, and yes, I think Okular/debian/sid is working very well at the present) (My system is a 8080 with 16KB RAM, and latest CP/M installed. Really a third gen i5.) > > This used to work very well even for bigger PDF files like the ARM > manual but something changed and this search function is very slow > and Okular is unresponsive while typing + searching. > > I'm using Debian/Sid with an up-to-date KDE.
