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...
We have another mupdf memory knob which is by default 64M, and that might be the problem. I opened issue with possible solution for this problem: https://github.com/hwhw/kindlepdfviewer/issues/79
