Settings > Reading Settings > Refresh the screen every: 1-6 pages.

You can set also values higher than 6 pages by editing the configuration file ./kobo/Kobo/Kobo eReader.conf and changing the value of numPartialUpdatePageTurns=

I find a refresh every 20 pages is enough on my Glo, unless the book has a lot of images or bold text in which case more frequent refreshes are better.
