Windows 10: PC with a non-working battery becomes slow after it gets unplugged and plugged back in

My PC’s battery for some reason doesn’t work, and the light on the back flashes rapidly orange.But besides that, when I unplug my pc to bring it somewhere, when I start it up again, everything is slow. It isn’t the internet, it’s the pc’s functions being slow. It happens only sometimes, and persists for a random amount of time but this time it’s been hours. I read that an unplugged pc with battery runs slower to save battery — could that be a part of the issue? Any help would be appreciated

:)
