The work of a VT100 is quite a lot more complex than that of a VT52 (many more screen operations, and more complex control sequence parsing). With the hardware technology available at the time, it was a pretty tough job. Does the VT100 have a microprocessor? It may predate those. In hardwired 7400 series logic, it isn't an easy job.

Yes, the V100 has an Intel 8080, the stripped-down V101 has an Intel 8085.
