The iPhone 5's processor has a lot more to do under iOS 11.1, thus the lag you may be seeing. Sorry to say that you may need to update the hardware (the iPhone) to get the software (iOS) to perform adequately.


The best thing to try is to:


Backup the iPhone under iTunes (link #1 below)


Use iTunes to restore the phone "as new" (link #2 below)


Test performance with a minimal installation


If performance is the same under "as new", don't bother testing any more and restore the backup you created above (link #3 below)


If performance is improved under "as new", you may need to rebuild the iPhone's contents from scratch. Admittedly, not fun.

So far, I have not yet updated my iPhone 5s to iOS 11.x and am still at iOS 9.3.5.
