Page refresh is probably low level function done by the controller, not the CPU. The CPU probably only does stuff like pagination and layout. The amount of text on an 6.8" page isn't signicantly more than a 6" page. So the CPU is hardly doing any more work.

This is not like a high dpi tablet where you need to decode, upscale 1080p video, and pump it out at 30fps.
