I've been using ZArchiver and Ghost Commander and haven't noticed a big difference vs Linux. It might depend on device's hardware too
I also use ZArchiver and unzipping is zippy (sorry) in my experience. Not quite as fast as Linux but that's to be expected considering the hardware difference.
However Windows is quite slow in this regard in my experience. It can easily take 30 seconds to extract a zip file that Linux can do in under a second, often with a sub 1MBps throughput. This is on an NVMe SSD.
Sry, I should state my device model in the post
I am using google pixel 9a so this issue looks like it might not be the issue of storage speed?
Also sorry about the typo in the post, I'm using ZipXtract and matrial files for decompressing
