Unfortunately, reducing the muPDF's cache to 32MB, doesn't seem to help - it just delays the reboot somewhat. Because the pattern is identical for DJVU and PDF I suspect that muPDF's caching is not the (only) reason. I wonder why you are not seeing the same on K3 however- that's strange... Did you try to open a PDF or DJVU and monitor the memory usage with 'top'. Also I tend to zoom in and use this special mode(FW down and then navigating using FW). It seems to me that while in this mode it takes even less page turns to reboot. I haven't tested it comprehensively though...
