Supposing the lag is caused by suspend, I also find that changing the markers for highlighting and for page cropping can be extremely laggy. These are events that have a lot of prior touch events. Further the device sometimes fails to come out of suspend. (See this thread about quirky power behavior.)

I remember my desktop on Arch Linux having trouble pulling the then new AMD CPU Ryzen 2600 back to maximum performance after a suspend: basically remaining at 1.5GHz instead of 3.5GHz. I had to manually adjust it:
Code:
cpupower frequency-set --governor performance
. The trouble has disappeared with newer kernels.

What would be a good approach to test this on the Pocketbook 740-2? I am reading the Arch Linux Wiki, but can't find directly relevant information, yet. Did you already include tools in your package that could be used to troubleshoot this?

(My wife is already asking me when I am going to return the reader...)
