It’s not exactly apples to apples... but my 64Mhz embedded processor is doing way more than 10,000 chacha20-poly1305 encodes of 64 bytes with another 64 bytes of additional data for the AEAD per second. Granted, it has some hardware crypto functions.

I am still skeptical TLS handshake on site visit is actually bogging down anyone’s computer.

The stream cryptography is not the issue here. Neither is "TLS handshake on site visit". The issue is that you have to spend the handshake cost before you can look into the request at all.
