User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0 Build ID: 20171023100252 Steps to reproduce: Opened a PDF file that is 256 MB with Firefox. PDF opens a new tab in Firefox and loads up. Actual results: While loading the PDF, memory jumps from 19% consumed to 99% (used Task Manager to see this and I have 16 GB of RAM) slowly while fluctuating up and down. Computer becomes unresponsive and slow while loading PDF file. Expected results: PDF opens up without issue and without using up so much RAM.

I suspect that it's the same issue as in bug #1410381, so I'm duping it there. Reopen if it's not.
Could you please try to reproduce the issue on Firefox 56 (stable version) and on Firefox 57 (beta version)?

No reply for week, so I'm clearing :ni. Reopen this bug, if it still reproducible in latest Nightly.
