Agreed. Like I said, I only have a few pdfs with that problem.

If you don't need insane zoom levels, you're better off with converting them to a lower resolution for the ereader.
On the few pdfs with high resolution scans, I've tried reducing the resolution, but the problem is, they are lots of text (typically two or three column) and I need to zoom at least 2x to read it, and if I reduce the resolution, the letters get fuzzy. Suggestions on how to reduce resolution (or otherwise speed up page turns) without loss of character clarity would be welcome. Modifying the document is ok with me, but I suspect a faster cpu would also help.
