David,
When you ROLLDOWN, the number of records scrolled is based on the number
of lines displayed when the subfile record is folded.  

So if you have a page size of 5, and 3 lines to a folded record, when
you scroll only 2 records will move off the page when folded (2*3= 6 >
page size of 5).

Hence, you wont load the next page until you have scrolled through all
of your currently loaded file, 2 at a time (folded). 

How to get around the problem?  Try loading by count based on the
fold/drop indicator/var, (i.e. When folded, load 5 at a time, dropped,
load 2).
