The processing is done via Samba. Acrobat Distiller is not simply 
processing a list of files, it is consolidating a group of files onto a 
single file, discarding repeated graphic objects and creating a single 
subset of fonts from the various font subsets present on the original pages.

The tools you quote do not apply in this case. I am not talking about 
office style PDFs, I am talking about full professional PDFs for 
printing presses, with embedded color profiles such as ISO Newspaper, 
JPEG2000 compression, bicubic resampling, etc. Not even Ghostscript does 
that kind of thing. I wish it did, but it doesn't.
