[Bug 841759] Re: Evince over-consume memory in regard of the opened pdf file

 

If it contains compressed images (JPEG, TIFF, GIF, PNG) then it will be
larger than it's file size when opened in memory, just like a standalone
JPEG is larger in memory than it's file size when opened in Eye of Gnome
or in GIMP.
