Windows 10: Slow wake up

I have a toshiba portege r835 which is a pretty old laptop but it has a reliable intel core i5 2nd gen processor.

there is a power light near the trackpad which blinks yellow when the pc is asleep and turns green the moment i lift the lid. it's pretty fast and reponsive. but the actual time taken to start the screen is about 5 seconds as compared to my father's laptop, which takes a split second to do so. he has a core i5 8th gen under the hood.

is it due to the outdated processor, or the old laptop model, or maybe because of less ram, to be specific 4 gigs of it?



thank you.
