Latex tries hard to fit whole undivided paragraphs on the pages, and will stretch or compress vertical spacing in order to achieve this. This means that the spacing between paragraphs of text, the spacing between headings and text, and the spacing above or below display math may vary a good deal. The alternative is substantially worse: small paragraphs split across pages, a single line ending a paragraph on the next page, or a heading at the very end of a page. Helge Hafting
