Bug ID: 391972
Summary: okular slower than evince at rendering a pdf
Product: okular
Version: 1.3.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: PDF backend
Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org
Reporter: kjs...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Okular renders some pdfs much slower than Evince, even though both use Poppler
for the pdf backend. Since the same backend is used, I would expect the pdf
render time to be the same.
For example, the second page of this pdf
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1701.07837v2
takes over 3 seconds for Okular to render. However, Evince renders it almost
instantly.
Or when quickly scrolling through a large pdf, Evince seems to render the pages
almost instantly, while Okular renders slower than I can (quickly) scroll. Here
is an example large pdf:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1508.02595v4
I'm using Okular 1.3.3, Evince 3.26.0, and poppler 0.61.1 on Archlinux (with an
Intel i7-3720QM @ 2.6GHz).
