Description Jonathan Thomas 2008-08-26 16:14:37 UTC 
Version:           0.7 (using 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.26-5-generic

This PDF causes Okular to freeze and consume tons of memory very quickly:

I tested this in evince for comparison and evince handled it fine, so I don't think it's poppler's fault or anything.

This bug also affected KPDF as originally reported here:

I do, given that the _same_ problem happens when using the mini Qt4 test viewer in Poppler.
Please report the problem for Poppler at https://bugs.freedesktop.org, 'poppler' product.

Thanks for understanding.

Sure. :)
