How do I fix jerkiness in text to speech (narrate feature)?

In reader view, on some but not all web pages, when I enable the narrate function the speech playback isn't smooth. It reads back a few words then pauses for a second or two, then reads another small number of words before pausing again. I've noticed this happen on two computer systems. It's very aggravating and I don't know how to fix it. Does anyone have a solution?
