Not weird at all. I also find reading too slow to try and comprehend every single thing does more harm than good! When I read casually it makes main ideas and important facts stick out more. It's all about balance, I think and of course repetition.

Do you overlook those words when you read faster?
It could happen for sure which is why it all goes back to balance and repetition. Overlooking such words can be detrimental to figure out the right answer.
continue to read difficult text and looking up words you don't understand. Eventually you will be able to read dense text. Maybe dissecting sentences and think of how it fits with the author's overall point? Repetition is the key here.
depends on if it's interesting .... if it's a lot of fluff then it's too long. If you've only included things that are clearly relevant then it's fine. is it double spaced or single spaced? how many words in total? mine is a little over 1000 words.
The general guideline is that your PS should not exceed 2 pages and it must be double spaced, 12pt font. But every school is different, so it boils down to what schools you're applying to is looking for.
