Package: okular Version: 4:4.8.4-3+b1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
Searching (aka. 'Find') a larger pdf-document (1326 pages 11 MB) with a short search string from beginning of the document to the end used to take 22 seconds on my laptop with the squeezy version of okular (okular 0.10... debian 4:4.4.5). After a dist upgrade to debian wheezy (with okular 0.14.3 debian 4:4.8.4) i noticed the same search slowed down to somewhat over a minute. That's a slowdown by almost Faktor three. Shouldn't new software generaly run faster? It's anoying as I use searching larger pdfs rather frequently. I noticed (using xosview) the old okular was running the search on a single cpu core while the newer one is using both cpu cores I have. This means the total used cpu time increased by factor 6! I understand that parallelizing an algorithm some tratdeoffs have to be made, but factor 6 is absolutely unacceptable. I understand that on an 8 core the new paralleliced search might require less wallclock time, but I *CANNOT* accept 'by an 8 core' as a bugfix. The problem might very well reside in one of okulars library packages. Please report this problem upstream.
