When opening the following document (a simple set of slides from a Coursera course), evince spends a bunch seconds churning CPU, and then also often from going from a slide to another: http://pitrou.net/BinPacking01-NextFit.pdf AFAICT this is with poppler 0.30.0.
The Linux perf tool shows me that there is a lot of time spent in cmsEvalToneCurveFloat() function when rendering this document. If you disable CMS in CMake (-DENABLE_CMS=OFF), the problem disappears. If you switch to lcms1 (instead of lcms2; -DENABLE_CMS=lcms1), it's slower than without CMS, but faster than with lcms2. I'm not familiar with this library, so unfortunatelly I can't write any patches which would fix it with lcms2.
