The console port is a serial device which uses interrupts. Every time an
interrupt is generated, the router CPU has to stop what it's doing to see
what's going on. The internal buffer doesn't have that overhead to deal with.
That's my understanding, at least.

Steven,
I think it must be due to the fact that a buffer is just memory but other
output locations would require additional I/O calls.
