6-7 seconds doesn't seem like a big time, for such a big report.
Anyway, another method can be used, but only if each detail band is the same size. Just divide the total number of records by the number of records that fit on one page. For example:
lnRecordsPerPage = 20
select * from MyTable where... into cursor Temp nofilter
lnTotalPages = ceiling(_tally, lnRecordsPerPage)
Otherwise, if the number of records per page is not fixed, you have to run the report twice.
