Preview - crashes with large PDF

I'm having a problem with Preview:


When I scroll through large PDFs, it freezes up and I get the spinning beach ball until I force quit.


It seems like Preview can only render so many pages until it dies.


This is very frustrating.


Does anyone have any solutions?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), OS X El Capitan (10.11)
