None of the Discourse based forums I've seen appear to be slow.

But if you do prefer to use the browser's within-page search, in the topic progress bar in the lower right, you can click to jump to the bottom, which loads everything -- then you can search the page. This is actually superior to Google Groups, which doesn't enable searching an entire discussion unless you manually expand each post. Forums that paginate posts also don't enable you to search the entire discussion within the page (because the entire discussion cannot be loaded in a single page).
