I've seen a couple discussions on why some PDFs are a lot slower than others. One of the reasons could be that the pages are stored as images, even if they just contain text. If the image is not at a native resolution suitable for the reader, it needs to re-render the image before it can be displayed. Another one that I've seen talked about, but don't understand very well, is that certain types of fonts being used in the PDF can make it really slow. You'll have to find the thread talking about that one if you want more details though. If I remember right, it listed a specific font (or maybe a couple) and said to avoid using them.
