I have a particular Lenovo machine (AMD Ryzen-based, though) that
routinely suffers from some perf throttling I think (guessing) in the
bios or hardware itself. Usually a complete shutdown and plugging and
unplugging the power gets it to start working as expected. Until then
it's dog slow showing now reason why (pretty sure apm shows a normal cpu
frequency and there's no interrupt storm).

I would not be surprised if that's the same problem reported here.

It happens enough to be mildly annoying, but not enough (and it's not my
daily driver) that I have dug into it further beyond just the power
cycle. Is it kernel state? Bios? /shrug
