Touch Moved Lag (Drag Lag)

Quick little question. Dragging a sprite seems to be a little slow. Take almost any mobile phone home screen for example. Swiping through app pages really fast back and forth won’t keep up with your finger. I was wondering if sprite drag lag is just because of the hardware’s limitation, or if there is a way to speed up the drawing in Cocos2d-x.
Any feedback would be great.
