Don't forget that the Greek word for conflict is dramos, which is the root of drama, which we all must engage in. No, it doesn't have to be something as grand as war or murder. Just things that make us choose.
One great writer (I believe it was Elmore Leonard) advised to never write conversation. Dialogue, yes, but not conversation.
As for conflict on every page, well that sounds awfully formulaic, doesn't it? Your dialogue should move the STORY forward, but character development is critical to the story. Sometimes you have to take a breather to flesh out the character--while keeping in mind that the conflict can not be far behind.
