If you think of how a dictatorship makes decisions. One person has the ability to unilaterally make decisions. This is very efficient. The dictator can declare X and then that is the law of the land.
A democracy, however, requires a deliberative process in a legislature. In American democracy it also requires approval from an executive such as a governor or president and finally is reviewed from time to time by the judiciary. This is a much more cumbersome process than in a dictatorship.
