I don't know if it's limitations in the screen technology or the processing power they put in these readers or something else, but my iPad doesn't require intermissions when I pan a PDF document or anything else for that matter. :/

*Edit, E-ink cannot work in the same manner that typical LCDs do in preserving a clear image while addressing individual pixel changes, it has to basically clear the screen before it can write on a new page after a couple images as the cells retain some of their charge that brings the 'ink' to the surface. But this has to do with the screen technology, and cannot be made ipad like by simply upping the processor.
E-ink doesn't work in that manner, it has to refresh post-pan because you are piling a lot of memory on a single bin. Anyhow, the usage will be the same, the processor is the same, and adding functions doesn't have anything to do with speed. You can install KOReader on your Aura if you want and see that it can work faster, it's just that the native pdf reader is shoddy.
