Scrolling performance worsens noticeably when text is selected.

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Open a PDF document containing a mixture of text and pictures.
2.  Scroll up and down with the mousewheel.  Scrolling feels smooth and quick.
3.  Select the Text Selection tool from the menu and select a few words on a page.
4.  Scroll up and down with the mousewheel.  Scrolling feels choppy whether or not the selected text is currently visible in the viewport.
