Hah, so I'm not crazy! Seems so strange to me to have newer firmware be slower
Not good.

Oh really! I wonder how that works... I will try it. |
Tried it... and indeed there does seem to be less irregularity, and less of the veeeeery long taking page turns.

So detailed!! Thank you!!
60ms on KOReader?!
Maybe I have to start thinking about using it... but I really do like kepubs and the integration with Kobo (affiliates).
Is 'ACCESS' the thing/software/whatever/I'm-stupid that the Kobo's firmware uses to read kepubs? 200-250ms sounds
long. Do you by chance still have details on a test you did from 4.9.11311 or similar firmware version? Just to compare.
I've attached a recording I did in unpatched 4.24.15676. I opened a kepub and started turning pages every 30 seconds. This 5 second clip is from one of the worst (slowest) page turns.
Does this mean that there's nothing
I can do about it and I'm either stuck with frustrated reading if I want to use 4.24.15676, passively waiting for improvement from Kobo; or stuck with an earlier firmware versions/KOReader?
