Migration Assistance Slow

Transferring between barely used 2018 MBP to 2018 Mac mini with apple thunderbolt 3 to 3 cable and supported thunderbolt 3 on both sides. Began the migration process from not computers on (not target disk mode) and getting 19-24 MB/s. I thought this was supposed to be fast?

Mac mini, macOS 10.14

Setup Assistant is the preferred method of moving a user to a new machine
