I have no problem whatsoever with my iPad 1, jailbroken ver. 5.1.1. but I mainly use it for reading though (almost as frequently as iPad 4) using only free pdf, djvu, epub, mobi apps,
and as storage for 50 GB books.

I've jailbroken it to freely share books or multimedia files between any app, connect USB memories or wireless HDD, and also for f.lux app. to get warmer colors for night reading.

At 2 USD I'd say MegaReader could be the answer, but without anyway to confirm that my EPUBs (sourced from CHM files, that I then made into EPUB using Sigil) would properly work in the way I expect them, I'd stay with what I have for the time being.
Maybe TxtPub

or maybe upgrading to 5.1.1 ; CHMate — The EPUB And CHM Reader
