I understand -- that's nice, if you can afford it, and don't mind having a ton of devices lying around for nothing else than testing purposes. The former is more of an impediment to me than the latter, of course. :/
a Maxed out TEXT file 30seconds to over a minute. This repeats if I change (zoom) the font. Once the file is rendered*, in-file page flips are decent.

*render is pre-parsing the whole file in these cases, not just what is displayed on the screen

You need lots of devices to provide odd lumps for cats to sleep on Laptop keyboards are only so-so
