This is perhaps why I don't find a problem with lengthy page turns - once I discovered Sigil I made sure that all my epubs are in short chunks. On the Jetbook I had a couple of books that, after several pages, slowed down to the point where the only way to maintain progress was to click for the next page whilst about half-way down the page. I discoverd these had huge html files. However, it doesn't account for why some people are experiencing slower page turns on books they were not having difficulties with before. Is it worth swapping files - would someone like to send me an epub that turns slowly, and I'll send one of a similar size that turns quickly, and then compare notes?
