Matthias,

Are you running on an iPad 3 by chance?

I'm not sure there's really much you can do. I've run into this same problem. 
If it's iPad 3, the LC engine has to work extra hard to update the screen, and 
that's what's causing the delay. It's my understanding that LiveCode does not 
yet take advantage of the new graphics processor in the iPad 3, and that's why 
visual effects like this appear to be slower. Hopefully sometime soon we'll see 
an update that takes advantage of the new hardware. Until then, one thing you 
could try would be to keep your code in preOpenCard as minimal as possible. 
Move everything you possibly can to openCard instead. This has actually helped 
me in some cases.

Good luck!

Chris
