I’ve used smollm2:135m for projects in DBeaver building larger queries. The box it runs on is Intel HD graphics with an old Ryzen processor. Doesn’t seem to really stress the CPU.
UPDATE: I apologize to the downvoter for not masochistically wanting to build a 1000 line bulk insert statement by hand.
If its compression related, have you checked your caching on that system?
You might try (as root - not sudo) to toggle swap off/on:
swapoff -a && swapon -a
Then just before running the installer (again as root - not sudo):echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
