I have actually had tremendous success with just hitting the page down key and holding it down. In my experience, the faster it scrolls the easier it is to get the information into your brain. One thing I've noticed however. If you are using Adobe Acrobat Reader to scroll, sometimes it will hang up for a second or two. So what I did was start opening the PDF files in my browser. So if I download a PDF, I'll right-click on it and open it with Safari (or Internet Explorer, Firefox, or whatever you're using). You can scroll through the pages almost twice as fast.
