Macs always get good benchmarks when it comes to disk speed, and I think the software then lets it down. APFS was disappointing (although maybe thats changed now), Finder could take as long to list a large folder as Explorer on a grotty spinning rust PC would. Even on my swanky new M1 mac, browsing through the disk has a noticeable lag when compared with Windows or Linux. Builtin Archive utility is noticeably slower than alternatives too, which makes things like XCode updates particularly slow even after you've finished downloading.
