This sounds very much like missing support for your video hardware
(either firmware or drivers or both).

If you'd like to fix the problem, instead of simply declaring Debian
to be "slow", you could start investigating.  Identify your video chipset
(using lspci -nn).  See whether any video firmware is desired but missing
(dmesg | grep -i firmware).  Try googling your video device with keywords
like "debian" or "linux" and see what steps other users have tried to
overcome the same problem with the same device -- it's highly likely
that you are not the first person to have the problem, after all.
