Is it all that slow?
That's somewhat strange. I've been updating all the way from 1.2 and the speed increase has been quite impressive. Right now, when I swipe (or press the page turn button), the update time is less than (but close to) a second. Would that be considered slow? It feels pretty normal if you're used to reading paper books. It may seem slow compared to LCD screens but we kinda knew that going in.
