Im sure it varies from species to species, but to the best of my knowlege Amoeba are not slow. Some species are effective "predators" of bacteria and are fast enough to catch and consume them, making them at least as fast as human phagocytes.
Hope this helps!
Amoebas move slowly because they rely on pseudopods, which are temporary projections of the cell membrane that help them move by surrounding and engulfing particles. This mode of movement is less efficient than using flagella or cilia, which other organisms use. Additionally, amoebas do not have a defined shape, further contributing to their slow movement.
