I'm afraid that is what it looks on a real CoCo3.

It's slow and sluggish but back in it's day, there wasn't much more to
compare it to. Remember, it came out very early in the CoCo3's life,
probably before much software had been released yet.

It was written under OS-9 also which provides it's own bottlenecks. 

No cutting edge "Sockmaster" demos back then!   :)

Imagine if Sock's bouncing ball demo were running in every Tandy store
window back then!
