Is Hali slow? YES
Are his combine times in the quickness/balance drills on par with about any good pass rusher in the NFL? YES, eerily similar to the elite ones to be more accurate.
Does Hali have short arms that cause missed opertunities? ABSOLUTELY
Do I think the defenses lacking talent is more to do with his just above average production than his physical limitations? ABSO****INGLUTELY

I think Hali's lack of speed comes into play when the QB sees or feels the pressure runs away.
Hali doesn't have the speed to catch him.
Now, with upgrades, that pressure will have the QB running into sacks from someone else, hopefully.
