One strategy in this room when entering from the left is to bounce on the first pillar, and jump over the second pillar while charging. Then do a Pseudo Screw Attack over the third pillar, killing the Geruta, and land in front of the right door.
If you have Spazer, you can alternatively farm the Geruta and the last Nova fairly efficiently, and this strat is less complex to execute.

Sir HopTart developed a known method of jumping fully, instead of a Mockball or bounceball across the pilar when first entering, followed by doing a Kago off the Frog to get down faster. When exiting from the missles, samus does a d-boost off the enemy to get out faster, this is humanly possible, but currently not achieved by anyone at the moment.
An easier method of getting out without the d-boost is just jumping out of the lava then jumping out as one normally would when collecting the missles then heading towards Bubble Mountain.
Here Sir HopTart collects Cathedral Missles in 4 seconds a 8 frames! (as far as he knows thats the lowest documented time for collecting them.
