The whole performance problem started a few years ago when the data model for WM was changed to persistent storage. (WM5) That coupled with the fact that clock speeds haven't changed gives you a double-whammy.

From a usability standpoint it was absolutely the right thing to do, but they just haven't been able to get the performance back up to pre-NVRAM standards. (and maybe it's unrealistic to think that they can without more CPU/GPU power)
