Looks like a combination of slow CPU and slow storage. EMMC can often be quite a bottleneck, maybe if they could get a faster storage controller like new UFS or smth

PineBook Pro can support an NVMe SSD with a cheap adapter that fits inside the case.

I've got the adapter and an Intel NVMe SSD installed, the eMMC is only being used to boot the system.

It works reasonably well for a device in this price range.
