Software matters, too. I use Linux on a dual-core processor and with the default viewer (Evince) it takes about 1-3 seconds to render the page of a scanned pdf (I think it takes more time when the document is initially opened, then it becomes faster). 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.
