Same issue here with Ubuntu 18.04 on Dell Inspiron 15R 5521.
I have tried changing
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor".
on /etc/default/grub and did not help.
Also tried the solution on https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2208278
and did not do anything.
Both brightness and volume keys are really slow do adjust and the brightness
ones always freeze the screen for good 5 seconds.

Title:
Adjusting display brightness is very slow on several Dell laptops
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Changing the brightness via FN key combination or via the brightness applet
is very slow.
the CPUs don't seem to go to 100%, but the adjustment process seems
relatively slow.
The mouse cursor is also sluggish.
Reinstalled the OS twice, but not because of this issue and the problem seems
to persist.
