Bug Description

Open the attached pdf document in Evince (1,2 Mb).

Try to zoom 4 times successively
=> Evince hang during around 20s before being able to render the new view.

Try the same with Adobe Reader
=> it is almost instantaneous

Evince should be quicker!!!

Tested with Evince 3.4
poppler/cairo (0.18.4)
Ubuntu 12.04

Same here. One problem seems to be, that only one core is used in my 4 core machine.

The document attached to comment #1 zooms quite fast on Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr", with evince 3.10.3-0ubuntu10, poppler 0.24.5-2ubuntu4 and libcairo2 1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1.

It might also be faster on Precise with the update to pixman 0.30.2-1ubuntu0.0.0.0.1.

Can you still reproduce this bug?
