A ghostscript performance bug was fixed in Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet"
and another ghostscript performance bug was fixed in Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily
Warthog". Does this issue still exist on Ubuntu 15.10?

Title:
  100% gs CPU usage, slow printing of PDF files

Status in ghostscript package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Recently, larger-ish PDF files are printing very slowly.

  This PDF, for example: http://cdn.sazs.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03
  /Corporate-Formal-Banquet-Menu-2014.pdf

  Printing to any printer, the process gs will occupy 100% cpu for
  several minutes before the print job is actually sent. During this
  time an error will appear in a notification bubble that states
  "[printername] may not be connected"

  The job will eventually print. On older systems this same document
  takes half an hour to print.
