Well yeah, if you get some beefy server somewhere else to do the rendering it will be quicker.
I don't know if Organic Maps and the like actually store vector tiles locally to get the speed up or what, but they're clearly doing something better.
I tend to only run mapping/navigation software offline, and this type of poor performance has only been noticeable on OSMAnd.
It's nowhere near as bad as it once was, but it's still not great.
