Has anyone ever seen when loading PDF files with many contiguous statements where you can cross loading thresholds such that you have to keep file sizes below a certain size to get them to load in a reasonable amount of time?
I have an example where a 200 MB PDF file loads in 4.4 hours but when I try to load one that is 340+MB it takes 11.5 hours to load? Scratching my head :-\
I originally thought the dropping unnecessary indexes from the AG was the issue, but the problem is clearly larger than just indexes.
Note: I have other AGs that can load PDF files that are 500MB in minutes and not hours.

Yeah, those load times are insane. Most CMOD PDF Indexing is done on Windows -- simply because the libraries for PDF on the Windows platforms are the most heavily used, so get the most development time/effort.
There are other tricks, like disabling PDF's internal compression to let CMOD work its own magic under the covers.
You can test it out by running the loads manually from a PC with the CMOD server software installed locally. If the performance is way better, then consider adding that into your architecture.
