It would be really suprising if any of that CPUs would make a difference.
Have you tried a different USB stick?
It is still totally unclear where your machines spends all the time. Instead of
installation you could benchmark reading the sets first, something
like:
time cat /mnt/.../base.tar.xz > /dev/null
and compare that with 9.x numbers.
