First, you have an advice on scroll-down.

Furthermore, scrolling down exposes portions of a file that were never
seen before, which needs to fontify them.  If fontification is
expensive, it is expected that you will see some lags.  What happens
if you scroll down, then go back to the beginning, and then scroll
down again -- is scrolling down the second time much faster?

Also, you didn't say which major mode did you use for this file.
