Bug Description
For some special svg graphics that I use in inkscape, the exported PDFs render extremely slow in all readers. Only acrobat can manage them. It may be an issue with transparency, because some viewers also render those pictures wrong.
A sample file is attached. The problem is rather urgent, I would appreciate some workaround. I tried exporting to ps/eps and converting to pdf but the results are the same and/or the pictures get damaged.

Slow rendering partially reproduced in external PDF viewers with PDF exported using Inkscape 0.48.1 and 0.48+devel r10531 (cairo 1.10.2) on Mac OS X 10.5.8 (i386):
a) Apple's PDF viewer (Preview.app) and xpdf version 3.02 have no issues with displaying the PDF,
b) Evince 2.30.3 hangs when displaying the PDF file, as does Inkscape itself (tested with r10531).
Possibly a (pattern/clip-path related) bug in poppler-based PDF viewers/importers (the clipart drawings in the SVG file have bitmap images used as patterns for clipped paths).
Please
a) provide information about your OS/platform and Inkscape version used to export to PDF
b) information about "all readers" (apart from adobe reader)
c) attach the PDF itself used for testing other PDF viewers
