Since the effect was seen in 14.1.x, you should check to make sure that the directory /var/log/journal exists, for use by "systemd-journald".
drwxr-sr-x. 3 root systemd-journal 4096 Apr 29 00:09 /var/log/journal
Otherwise, the system may try to use "/run/log/journal", which can cause slowness.
(This does not apply to earlier releases.)
