Thank you for your confirming.

I implemented calfw-org with consultation of the code of
org-agenda-list. I think it is difficult to make the speed faster with
a simple way, the re-design of the whole org-agenda-list algorithm
seems to be needed, because the key function
org-agenda-get-day-entries requires only one date and the subsequent
dependent functions also are designed by the API.

Yes. The current implementation, calfw sorts the items by alphabet,
i.e. string-less, in one date cell. This is intent to sort the items which 
has time header like "10:00 meeting" "13:00 go to airport" "16:00 meeting".

It is not so difficult to add a customize of the sort criteria.
And you can try your custom summary format, modifying cfw:org-summary-format.
In the function, you can get the time value from the text property.
