I'm using OOo Writer version 3.1 on MacOS X 10.5 (officially released 
download). Tried to work with a 200 
page document with images (software user manual). Scrolling page-wise up and 
down with the page 
up/down keys takes about 2-4 seconds per page on a Mac Pro 8-core machine with 
12GB RAM.

I doubt this is the intended behavior, especially on a capable machine like 
that.

As mouse wheel scrolling is also not usable for skimming long documents (see 
Issue #90907), there is 
currently no viable way to work on longer documents on the Mac. The previous 
version 2.4 under X11 
performs fine with the same document. Therefore I rated this issue a defect 
rather than an enhancement.

As to the cause, although I dont know the source code, I would guess there is 
something wrong with the 
lazy background formatter/renderer, i.e. it seems to always render the entire 
document rather than the 
requested pages only. Hopefully this is not too hard to fix.
