When I try to load a CBR file (detailed below), evince in Debian11 opens it so slowly I can have a cup of coffee in the meantime. Afterwards, the whole computer is slowed down. When I do it with Debian10, evince loads the file fast and computer speed is not affected.
This is the file:
Go to The Cartoons of Cobean | Samuel [Sam] E Cobean | download and hit the blue [Download (cbr, 113.07 MB)] button.

Can this be corrected?

I am using Description:    
Debian GNU/Linux bullseye/sid
Release:    testing
Codename:    bullseye
Linux debian11 5.8.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.8.10-1 (2020-09-19) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Thank you, siggi2

Hello, I've also suffered evince slow opening file problem.

Ever since Debian 10.7 or later will this slow opening problem occurs.

However, I manage to solve this by adding the following line in ~/.xinitrc:

dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
DISPLAY XAUTHORITY

This solution is from the following url:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=224787

After adding this line to my ~/.xinitrc. the problem is solved.

I've tested it to load your CBR file, and it works like a charm.

Please consider this is a bug and the above is the solution.

Thank you!

Best Regards,

pmlee

Thanks for your message. However my final solution was very simple: I have a new notebook:
HP 15s-eq1445ng 39.6 cm (15.6 inch) Full HD Notebook, AMD Ryzen™ 5 4500U, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD, AMD Radeon GraphicsWith this and Evince (Document Viewer) and Debian 11 loading this CBR file is a breeze :-)
So, I think, better Ram, b etter processor and better HD, i.e., SSD, did it.
