Indeed sumatra (mupdf) views them fast and I think also in good quality. 
Memory consumption is quite ok and fits into the 4 gig limits of 32 bit 
os's. (I use sumatra when possible, also on linux (wine)).

Acrobat also views ok but memory will jump a few gig so it might be a 
virtual memory issue at your end. Indeed Acrobat Reader and Pro X are 
way slower (I have no newer acrobat than x to test).

Very nice drawings.
