Lighter, faster PDF reader

Adobe Acrobat Reader is the PDF file reader used by most computer users.

However, this software is huge for what it does.

Adobe Reader takes up 96.8MB of your hard drive space, pegs CPU usage of a
2GHz system to 100% twice for about 10 seconds, and uses 13MB of your RAM.

Foxit Reader takes up 2.8MB of your hard drive space, CPU usage of a 2GHz
system is at about 10% for a second and uses 400KB of your RAM.
(Or, about 3% of the RAM that Adobe Reader uses.)

Please note that the above numbers were based on a very quickied comparison.
