Steps:

Open linked pdf, a sample from a Dynafont font collection.

Result: the pdf doesn't display correctly and there are lots of multi-second hangs during which no UI interaction is possible.  Even after closing the tab with the pdf browser hangs for several seconds in roughly 10 second intervals and a restart is required.

Note: the "this PDF may not display properly" message does appear.

Sampling with activity monitor indicates lots of hangs releasing memory:

John, can you confirm that this is not a problem anymore?
I tested on Win7 and it loaded without causing hangs on Firefox.

Testing with latest Nightly seems fine. It's slow but that's understandable given all the fonts loaded by the document.
