The most likely reason the viewer seemed to hang is probably because it converts to whatever the file you're viewing to oeb/epub before displaying it. If you chose a file that takes that long to convert normally that's expected.
Dwanthny hit the nail on the head with the comments about formats that stemmed from word, word creates some hideous css/embedded/nested styles that takes forever to convert. Books with really clean formatting convert quite quickly. Filtered html should help, a number of users have said it's better to use OpenOffice to do the Word doc to HTML conversion instead. YMMV
