I've generally optimized it for scrolling vertically downward, not horizontally side-to-side or vertically upward. On limited-memory devices, there are some real trade-offs, and not to waste memory the app needs to guess the direction of the next scroll. And so I have it guess that you're going to go down. This works well if you're reading a book and all the pages are vertically arranged, one after the next. You just scroll down and each successive page is waiting for you.

I think in your usage situation we would see a benefit from increasing the tile cache size (the tiles are the areas which you see getting rendered), and maybe pre-rendering tiles to the left and right. If you email me, I can send you some test versions with different tweaks. Or if any of the magazines you are viewing have a free sample copy online, you can point me to a pdf.
