Similar problems here on an AMD 1.8GHz w/ 1GB of RAM.  It is definitely
only pronounced on scanned pdf files as opposed to searchable, copy-able
text (or maybe anything larger than 1MB). Scrolling down, the RAM usage
jumps by 50-100MB for each page I go through, and doesn't come back
down. I've attached a shot of my system monitor - you can clearly see
where CPU usage and RAM usage go through the roof (I opened and closed
it twice). And this is only a 20-page, 2MB pdf... But based on how much
ram is being used - it would totally crash a system with <1GB of RAM.

For the "regular" searchable pdf (151KB), memory only goes up by about
30MB total (still a bit much, in my humble opinion).
