If you need instant gratification of seeing something visual going on for those brief microseconds, set the refresh to every page, those page turns are pretty instant for me still, but I prefer to set refresh to around 50.
Actually, I just tested this using my Aura HD and a hard cover book, and the physical page turn was faster when reading an epub. Reading a kepub, the HD was just barely faster.

All of my Kindles, as well as my Onyx T68 were faster than the Aura HD.
