UIWebView should already be doing its own tiling behind the scenes. It is not possible to manually return a UIWebView with the CATiledLayer that I know of, due to its complex rendering architecture.
If you are creating a UIWebView that is only the size of the display, the only reason I could think of a slower scrolling than Mobile Safari is because there are other overlays that need to be arranged in the web view when scrolling.
