This is slow.
I would rather expect a lot less than a 1/10th of a second
unless you use a computer older than 10 years.

Without more information its hard to guess why your system is so slow.

Which OS are you on?
What Video format are you using?
Are your source surfaces converted to the display format?
If your app fullscreen or window?
HW or Soft surface?
