It's not the SIZE of a PDF which is the problem, but the COMPLEXITY of it - the amount of RAM needed to process the instructions necessary to render it. unfortunately, there's no easy way to tell prior to the rendering process how much memory will be required for the task. Low-RAM devices are far from ideal for PDF.
