Well, IMHO memory is plenty.
And as long as the file is open in okular, isn't it anyways in cache/memory or
does it load from disk for each new page?

Still when using a local copy, would it be possible to:
a) open the file instantaneous (after the first 100kb downloaded) - INSTEAD of
waiting for the whole file to download?
b) Have the whole copy and examinating pop-ups hidden from the user?

You need a local copy, if you don't have a local copy it means you either have
to
A) have the file in memory forever, which is bad if the file is big.
B) access the remote server every time you need to read the file, e.g.
rendering a new page, which is bad because you create extra traffic and is
dependent on the remote server disappearing.

So a local copy is the best thing to do, no?

I just checked and indeed Okular does loads a new (changed) copy of that file.

I do not understand this sentence.

It is the same behavior (okular creates local copy of pdf file).

You mean that if you open a file on smb and press F5 it doesn't reload the
file?
I guess that's because dolphin does that not because okular does it right?
i.e. if you call okular from the command line it will work, no?
