PDFs were slower for me on the stock ROM, by the way. The HD+ isn't the speediest device around to begin with.

It should get faster on CM11 BTW, you may have noticed already. 10.1 didn't have
TRIM support at all, because some Nook HD+'s had a memory controller bug that could brick the device if TRIM was used. 10.2 added in TRIM support, based on a fix that Google did for the Nexus 7s that had the same memory controller, but it wasn't turned on by default. CM11 actually has TRIM enabled, and it helps tremendously! My 16gb Nook HD+ went from so slow I wanted to throw it across the room at times to nice and snappy like it was when I first rooted it.
There's an app called
eMMC Check that will tell you if your Nook HD+ has the buggy memory controller, but I don't think it matters any more. Apparently there have been no reports of bricked tablets after the TRIM fix. There's also an app called
Lagfix (fstrim) Free that will do a forced TRIM of all the storage. I used it after I installed CM11 to get things going faster sooner. (I did run the
eMMC Check first to be safe, turns out mine doesn't have the buggy controller.)
