  We study the $\mathrm{Out}(F_n)$-action on the second bounded cohomology
$H^2_b(F_n, \mathbb{R})$, focusing on the countable-dimensional dense invariant
subspace given by Brooks quasimorphisms. We show that this subspace has no
finite-dimensional invariant subspaces, in particular no fixpoints, partially
answering a question of Mikl\'{o}s Ab\'{e}rt. To this end we introduce a notion
of speed of an element $g\in \mathrm{Out}(F_n)$, which measures the asymptotic
growth rate of bounded cohomology classes under repeated application of $g$.
