My understanding is that the CPU goes into a low power mode, and certain events/interrupts will wake it up: touch, a timer, ... Try this:
1 Count to ten Mississippi, and turn a page, noting how long it takes to page forward
2 Now page back and page forward without a delay
The page forward for (2) is quicker. I believe this is due to the alternate sleep (I tried it under several different page turning scenarios, to try and make sure it wasn't a cache thing).
