The size of the PDF won't really matter. It's more complicated with PDF, some objects will claim memory, some won't. As a rule of thumb, bitmaps and, most of all, transparency/filter masks will be costly. That said, I don't think the issue at hand has to do with that.

The column icons will only influence the reflow - do you have reflow activated?

That said, we do nothing that would make the Kindle reboot (I think). Freeze up - yes, we can do that :-) It shouldn't happen of course, but well. But freezing and rebooting are mutually exclusive. I take it it "froze" only for a short while?

If no crash.log file is left behind, we probably need a publicly available PDF to try to reproduce the crash. It seems to look good for me and the PDFs I tried, but then I just plowed boldly through the code base and there was one change to the library we use to do PDF reflow. So I would not absolutely exclude it. However, we need to reproduce the problem. Before going any further - did you try to reinstall over the existing files? It's not unheard of that files get corrupted during copying to the Kindle, so making sure (again) that the right ones are on the device is always a good idea.
