How does it compare to xpdf?  I'm sure it supports more of those 
Adobe-ish features of PDF, but I'm a fan of xpdf because of its speed 
and light weight.  How big is it memory-wise when you use it (compared 
to xpdf or, heaven forbid, gpdf)?

I'm sure I'll try it out on my box when I have a chance, I'm just 
wondering if I'll change.

Thanks,
Matt
