The company I work for recently purchased some old iPad 2s for mobile viewing of eDrawing files. Having tried several assembly files of about 20-30MB my conclusion is that eDrawings is not up to speed for our needs. I tried the same files on my own iPad Air and hit the same wall - out of memory warning.

We then tried 3D PDF reader which is an improvement but still crashes. Is there anything out there for the iPad software wise that can handle files of 20MB plus?
