There are more things that also determine the speed of a camera. If you're talking about refocusing, it could be a lens issue. What lens did your friend have on the 400D? Some autofocus really fast and some will hunt for focus forever and then just give up.
Also, if you're talking about the camera being busy, the memory card speed will also have a big impact on your waiting time. It could be that your friend has an inferior memory card. If it's only taking 4 pics and buffering out on you (which it really should be taking more IIRC), then he/she definitely had a slow memory card.
