Small file with several pages to flick through

Evince is extremely slow on some files, especially if it contains images or graphs.
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 (libpoppler 0.24.5-2ubuntu, but it also affects Ubuntu 14.10 with libpoppler0.26.5). In earlier versions, the test pdf attached would render each page almost instantaneously, it now takes several seconds per page. Even Firefox (with the built-in PDF renderer, HTML5) can render this much more quickly.
In order to test this, it is not enough to look at a single page, but you need to quickly flick through several pages. Note that the file itself is pretty light.
I'm using Sandybridge integarted graphics, i5-2450M.
