For anything that doesn't have healer-specific tunings, it can take a long time. Even with good gear and doing the optimal rotation (Assize, PoM, etc etc).

Sorry. It's part of the healer life.

This has nothing to do with DPS output, however. Several skills or few skills, solo duties not specifically tuned for healers will be slow. The most recent expac has nothing to do with that.
