Could it be that setNeedsDisplay: isn't called but setNeedsDisplayInRect: is?

I'm not hugely familiar with PDFKit, so this may be a naive question, and it definitely delves into wild speculation...
Why do you override drawPage: rather than drawRect:? I wonder if drawPage: is being called on multiple instances of PDFPage. Maybe (and here's the wild speculation) something about selecting text in the PDFView causes lots of PDFPage instances to be created, which would explain why you don't see the many calls to drawPage: until then.
What do you see if you add NSLog(@"%@", page) to your drawPage: method? Is it the same PDFPage every time?

Not sure if this relates to your problem, but it seems to me you should test the results of super first. For example:
- (BOOL)becomeFirstResponder {
BOOL didBecome = [super becomeFirstResponder];
if (didBecome) {
[self setKeyboardFocusRingNeedsDisplayInRect:[self bounds]];
}
return didBecome;
}
And similarly for resignFirstResponder.
Also, I would be curious how often these get called -- I don't suppose they're getting called with every key you type into the text view? It does seem weird that drawPage: is getting called when you aren't even interacting with the PDFView. I don't suppose your text view has a delegate that is doing something that might affect the PDFView?
