On the Application Settings screen (Appearance tab) there is a setting for 'External Leading'. I think that might do what you want.

Yes, it is slower - mainly because of the CSS style sheet stuff (decoding styles, and then figuring out which attributes go on which HTML elements is heavy work). That should be a one-time hit (it'll be slower to load a book the first time Freda sees it, but it should be quick thereafter).
It will go quite a bit faster if you turn off 'Animations' on the Application Settings/Appearance tab, since that turns off the paginating/loading animations (and drawing those animations is actually quite processor-intensive work).
As for the 'beach ball' I'm not sure why that would be happening. Could you send me a copy of the epub file you were reading when it happened, and I will check it out. Of course, it could be a problem specific to your device (it may be that you're getting an 'application suspend because of low memory' condition, for instance).
Thanks for the feedback,
Jim
