Why on Earth would screen resolution affect the time taken to open a document? It'll affect (marginally) the time taken to render each page, but it shouldn't have any impact on the time taken to actually open it, other than a small increase in the time to render the first page shown.

If it does, that would be a poor strategy. A good PDF reader shouldn't take any longer to open a 1000-page document than a 1-page document; only the complexity of the page actually being displayed should impact times. It's a good idea to pre-render the following page while the user is reading a page; it would be a terrible idea to render every page at the time the document is opened!

The problem with the higher resolution is as far as I can see that there is no relevant hardware acceleration for the 'graphics card'. So the CPU needs to do that, too. That means higher resolutions equals to slower page rendering. |

I have a PocketBook 623 (about 1024x768 screen resolution) and a PocketBook 840 (1600x1200 resolution), and although the latter has a slightly faster CPU and more RAM, the former renders PDF pages much faster. I put it down to the lower screen resolution. This is just a guess, but every PDF rendering software I've seen uses floating-point math for rendering, and the ARM-based ereaders have to emulate that part of it. The more pixels to render, the more emulated math to do. I think these devices would be faster at rendering PDFs if there was software that used fixed-point rather than floating-point math.
