How can i change the mouse' wheel-scrolling-speed in Adobe Reader / Acrobat Pro?

While I'm studying i read a lot of books at the computer with Adobe's Acrobat and sometime i just fly over the pages to find something. What keeps me annoying is, that although my scrolling speed is set to fast in Windows settings, whenever i open a pdf file and zoom a little bit in to fit the screen, Adobe changes the wheel-scrolling speed of my mouse to very slow.
It seems to me, if i would try to scroll in this situation through a let's say just 20 pages ebook it could last for years to reach the end of the pages...

Any suggestions why or how to change this behavior ?

Here's what I did:

     1) Update your mouse scrolling rate.

     2) In order for it to actually use my scroll rate I had to go to select 'View->Page Display->Single Page Continuous' rather than just 'Single Page'. Fast scrolling works.

I tested this on my new MacBook without Logtech Options installed and the scrolling issue is non-existent then, so it seems te be in the combination: Acrobar and Logitech Options. I would assume it's with Acrobat as Acrobat is the only application misbehaving with Logitech Options installed

Instead of scrolling, you can hold down scroll wheel and drag the page up/down to skim pages faster.
