iPad 2 iOS 9.1 - Pages running very slow

Hello. After Apple released the iOS 9.1 Beta I was forced to update it from iOS 9.0. I tried avoiding it but everytime I turned on the device it would prompt me to update which became very annoying. Now ever since I updated to iOS 9.1, my Pages app runs extremely slow. So slow that I cannot even type 1 word correctly. It just comes up a jumbled mess and freezes for several seconds after each letter I type.

I've already cleared as much memory as possible. I've cleared and deleted Safari Cache and history. Everything else works fine except Pages. When I type into Notes for example it types just fine.

Specs: iOS 9.1 [13B5110e], iPad 2 MC979C/A 16GB with 3GB available space.

Is there anything I can do to speed up Pages so it works correctly? Or even how to revert back to iOS 9? Any help would be appreciated.

iPad 2, iOS 9.1

Update:

today my ipad crashed or rebooted 10 times. The issue was disk space. It appears that ipad, perhaps the older ones are using extensive disk cashing, memory swapping. I had 200Mb left! I deleted many photos, movies, now 1.5gb, back to normal. Perhaps older ipads are more suseptical to disk space and they have already filled the disk.
