Generally, it has to do with the specific content on a page and how much work the DR needs to do in order to render it to fit it's native resolution, not so much the overall file size. You can have very large PDFs that are simple text which will have quick page turns. You can have a very small PDF with complex/large images, and it'll end up being very slow.
Note, when I say "images" I'm talking about the format that the data is stored inside the PDF file, which doesn't necessarily imply "pictures". A plain text document can actually be stored inside the PDF where each page is an image file, rather than stored as text characters (PDF is funny that way). Generally this occurs if you have a PDF that was scanned, but not OCR'd. So, even plain text pages can be slow to turn if the data is actually stored inside the PDF has a high resolution "image".
