The real reason in vast majority of cases, why most of our software seems slow is not because someone used Javascript instead of Win32 C or something else programming language related. The real driver of slowness are the network requests for everything.
You could build your software in assembly but if each action has to hit a rest endpoint, the network request will utterly dwarf anything else happening locally.
So as more and more software moves to browser as web-apps this slowness is unavoidable.
Consider how more quicker and responsive Thunderbird feels to using gmail, a web-app.
