Yeah with the Ethernet it's not bad, I noticed with wifi if left ideal for a bit it would be slow to load. If you run the command htop it'll show how the memory and CPU is. Half the memory is gone mainly due to mysql, it uses a lot.
I was lucky to get a couple Zero 2's, now they are all gone. :( These Pi's are getting difficult to find these days. The Zero 2 is definitely faster than the Zero but still quite a bit slower than the Pi 3 B+. I tried running the full OS with a HDMI display but it was a horrible experience, it loaded ok but using UI was a crawl, felt like a sick Windows computer. The wifi felt better than the original Zero as well but still not as instant as the Pi 3. Nice little board though, if a person doesn't care to connect a display directly it's a perfect fit. I got so excited about it I added new listings including it and everything else needed as Digi-Key had 1000's in stock, now they are gone and I have one left till who knows when. I can't believe there's still a big part shortage, something feels fishy about it all. ;)
