I use Terminal *all* the time, and haven't seen any real speed issues, so the tip below, or some other issue would seem to be a likely culprit.
True it's slightly slower than say xterms on a Linux box, but nothing like so much as to affect useability. OTOH, I have seen Terminal crash quite a few times. Not frequently enough to be a serious problem, but more than I would have expected (i.e. never).
