It's a trade-off I'm generally happy with (although we are interested in degenerate cases where stuff is taking an inordinately large amount of time, c.f., the KOReader forum), although it's largely historical: CRe was designed way back when, when embedded devices had ridiculously low specs (... they still do. But it used to be way worse  ).
Feel free to try Plato, which probably does chunked parsing/decoding. |
I understand.
I may give Plato a try. Although to be fair, this whole thing is starting to make me unable to read a book without thinking "hum, this bit of text here would have been better formated by Nickel / KoReader".
