Description Marcel Stimberg 2011-01-19 13:09:43 UTC
Originally reported in the Ubuntu bug tracker:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/700657

The pages 1, 3 and 4 of the PDF at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poppler/+bug/700657/+attachment/1789137/+files/Netto2.pdf
render very slow, it seems the "JUBILÆMSPRIS" logo is responsible for this (page 2 which does not contain it renders much faster). Okular (which uses the splash backend I think) renders all pages fast, without any noticable difference between the pages.

The problem does occur with poppler 0.14.3 (Ubuntu 10.10) and poppler 0.14.5 (Ubuntu 11.04).
