Hi Vedant,
My quick guess is that you should read the stats like this:
Transferring:
* small/small_file_5127.bin: deleting
* small/small_file_5128.bin: deleting
* small/small_file_5129.bin: deleting
* small/small_file_513.bin: deleting
* small/small_file_5134.bin: deleting
so increasing --transfers will speed up the purge.

If not, we need more info like rclone version, rclone config show some_remote: and the output of
rclone purge some_remote:some_bucket--progress --checkers 100000 -vv
