Bug Description
Evince is excruciatingly slow when displaying the book available for download at http://
Scrolling can take several seconds and will often just display empty pages. (And it is even worse with the 2009 version of the book you can still find on several places on the internet), while xpdf has no problems at all with instantly switching to the next page.

To post a comment you must log in.
The file that you linked to renders pretty quickly (including scrolling) on my old system running Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr".
Can you please tell us the following?
- what version of Ubuntu you are using
- the output of uname -srm
- what version of evince you are using
- what version of poppler you are using
- what version of libcairo2 you are using
- the output of cat /proc/cpuinfo
- how much RAM is in your system
