Comment 6 for bug 315079

Yes, my results look like yours. It is only unusable at 1600%.
The both settings are in the fastest mode.

It's not really that slow without much zoom, but with Inkscape 0.46 it is faster.

> Bug description:
> When upgrading to SVN, that starts using libpoppler.so.4 and libpoppler-glib.so.4 , when you get closer to a blurred box, for example, it gets really slow to refresh the view when you scroll or move.
>
> To test it, I used the Ubuntu's stable version 0.46 that uses libpoppler.so.3 and libpoppler-glib.so.3, and it was fast.
> But, when I temporarily removed libpoppler.so.3 and made a link of libpoppler.so.4 to libpoppler.so.3, it got as slow as the SVN version.
> But I'm not really sure if libpoppler is the only problem, because the opposite is not true. When I make a symlink from .so.3 to .so.4 and use SVN version, it doesn't get faster. It only works with stable version.
