It is not windows that causes the difference but the Sony library software. In LRF files there is some metadata that contains the page boundaries and number of pages to the document. This permits jumping reliably to a particular page and knowing the full page count. If the book is download via the Sony library software it presets all the possible font sizes with the appropriate data. Othewise this is done by the reader itself the first time it opens the file or the user changes the font size. This is a one time hit for the document and really slows down the opening of the file but not any subsequent reading of the file. This one time hit is what people are complaining about.
