I'm thinking it's a combination of software and hardware improvements. For example copying DVD movies to same or another drive:
Pi4/Buster 4min
Pi4/Bookworm 2min
Wintel/XP 45sec
Pi5/Bookworm 30sec
I suspect this may be related to hints dropped by Pi engineer couple years ago alluding to major improvements for NTFS drivers which have finally managed to percolate down. I stick with this format exclusively for big drives/partitions in the interest of compatibility. This is far more important to me than any perceived (or not perceived) boost in ui speed.
