Something I wondered about the transfer was if it was sped up in places (or if that was how it was filmed?) As this is the only reference point for me, sometimes it was as if it was played at 30fps or something, mostly during panning shots towards the end as if they really wanted to get the film in under 3 hours without cutting any scenes?

Yeah, King Hu played around with film speeds during the shooting of the movie. That was a part of his style. You should check out Dragon Inn if you haven't.
