If I use mupdf as an alternative viewer, the rendering of the page is less than a second. Acrobat reader also renders the pages faster.

Djvu is usually faster than pdf for large scanned documents, so I always end up converting them if I plan to use them a lot.
It is worth noting that the M92 pdf viewer uses Acrobat's engine, that is usually quite fast, so it's a bit odd it is so slow to flip pages. I thought it rendered and cached the next page...
BTW it would be nice to have an alternative PDF viewer based on the mupdf rendering engine
