prerender pages as long as load is below 0.5

Description

if load average is below 0.5 (0.1?) then it is quite likely that the system is in idle mode and "only" used for PDF viewing.

In case of low CPU load it should be legitimate to use CPU power to prerender pages to the page cache.

Thanks, Frieder

My main concern with ePDFView is not CPU load bu memory usage. Precaching as many pages as possible would mean using a lot of memory that possibly won't be used, and I figure this will be worse for embedded devices.

I leave open this bug because I could add an option to ePDFView that follows the behaviour you describe and even it'll let you specify the maximum load average for precaching pages. If this options gets added by default it will be disabled, though.
