Crypto optimizations are no joke. My Pinebook Pro takes several seconds longer than my T430 to decrypt my keepassxc database.

Maybe the time is hashing your password. This is designed to take as long as it can while still being reasonable. 1 second on a fast machine isn't unheard of.

Why would it need to decrypt a whole database though, and not just the required password? To avoid leaking the key name?

Yes I think it is an all or nothing deal.
