iLiad's potential: PDF viewing shootout (Zaurus v. iLiad)

As I wondered about how large the potential for pdf rendering speed improvement is, I loaded a complex PDF both with the Picsel Browser for Zaurus and the iLiad. The result is interesting, because the Picsel Browser shows the first page much much quicker, but as it apparently continues preloading the whole file it runs out of memory soon.

In any way there is much potential in the iLiad, because the hardware of the two devices seems to be pretty similar.
