Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince
steps to reproduce: 1. open http://www.physik.tu-muenchen.de/lehrstuehle/T39/T39_files/Lectures_files/QuantumMechanics2007/QM07_Kap7.pdf 2. add "zoom in" and "zoom out" buttons to your toolbar (i'm not sure if this is really needed, but I reproduced the problem in this way) 3. switch on continous-mode 4. scroll (slowly) to the bottom of the document 5. click on "zoom in" till zoom level reaches 200 % 6. scroll (slowly) to the top of the document result: evince consumes about 1,5 GB vm-memory (600 mb writeable). system becomes very slow. If the steps do not work for you, try zooming in and out again. I verified this with compiz running, 1 GB physical RAM, 2 GB swap.
