Wow, I just ran into the same problem only with this particular book it takes 20 seconds to switch to the next page in landscape mode.
The book is an Andrew Vachss title from the Connect store and it is quite short (517 pages in portrait mode and small font setting). I tried other books from the upload section here on mobileread and there is no problem with them in landscape mode.
How is it possible that Sony does such a bad job at formatting its books (if the problem really is format-related as kovidgoyal has suggested)? Do they test their books before they sell them?
Maybe I got it all wrong: Maybe Sony is not incompetent when it comes to formatting books in their very own proprietary format, just average. Instead, the helpful mobileread members who work tirelessly to increase the number of available books in the book upload section are exceptionally skilled.
I will go with the latter interpretation and would like to thank all uploaders.
BTW, if the Andrew Vachss book had come without DRM I would likely have been able to fix it for better performance (with a little help from the more knowledgeable mobileread members maybe). DRM sucks!
Cheers,
