Okay I have done some side-by-side between Voyage and PW4 (Voyage has same CPU as PW3).

Most things are the same.

Voyage is slightly faster at adding to a large (1000) collection. BUT I have some audiobooks in that, so there are actually more items in that collection. So probably essentially the same.

Opening Graphic Novel is the same

Opening a large (1000 page) book is the same

Opening a super large (5000 page) book is the same

Opening a book with 5000 chess diagrams is consistently about a second faster on the PW4

In all above cases, page turns are same.

PDF open and page turns are the same, zoom and pan are about the same

So.. not much difference, it seems, other than reflowable books with lots of images.
