No offence to anyone who’s in support of it, but Gnome has never been the “quick and responsive” choice. They choose to focus more on helping users make connections between input and effect (Click minimize, see an animation of the window minimizing to it’s final position), same goal as OSX.
There are dozens of window managers who’s focus is on responsiveness (Xfce jumps to mind) if you want to explore that side of it.

The speed difference you mention was one of the reasons. But now my HDMI port only works under Wayland. So now I use Gnome3 (under sufferance). The difference between speed difference between Wayland and X11 is so big, it blows away the speed improvement LXQT gets you, so Gnome3 is actually faster than the rest now. I presume that will change when more Desktop environments move to Wayland, but for now that's the reality.
