Unfortunately laptop having the same capabilities as that of a desktop cpu are pretty much the same however the cpu's in the netbooks can't be overclocked as the heat output cannot be controlled efficiently. Aside from that they do in a way turbo boost up the clock frequency higher in order to maximise the cpu utilization like in games and photo editing.

Even if it could, that shitty cpu is too slow.

I'd recommend grabbing a ssd if the laptop feels slow.
