Nope, it accelerates. It even starts before I get to the bottom of the
page, which is really annoying because by the time I stop it it's
past the bottom of where I've written to.

Haven't you ever seen this? You either use applications that don't do
it
(and adobe acrobat reader doesn't seem to, but that may be because
what I'm reading is not just text but more bit-heavy) or your system
is set up somehow (and not thru the System Prefs!) different.
