In my laptop, evince crawls every time I open a scanned Physical Review paper 
(i.e. older than 1995). However, xpdf works flawlessly.  A lot of examples can 
be found in the Physical Review Letters milestone papers, which I think anyone 
can access:

I must say that I've seen this happen on my laptop (ATi card + free
radeon driver) and on a Debian Testing PC (Intel), but a Core Duo laptop
with nVidia graphics and running Xubuntu Gutsy opened a "dangerous" pdf
fine. Can this be related to the graphics card or the driver? I'll try
fglrx to see if that changes anything.
