I don't have any DJVU files, but have seen PDF take a long time as well
sometimes, especially if the file is large with more pages/images. I use
Evince and have consciously avoided using Adobe products for PDF's. I
thought that the way evince is. Would certainly like to see it getting
faster and better at rendering

I have 2GB RAM and use a 64 bit OS on a dual core desktop processor.
