It seems pretty straightforward to me. For a standard you can say "compared
to X", "in situation Y".
E.g., human evolution is fast compared to geological evolution or slow
compared to social evolution.
Peregrin falcons are fast compared to most birds.
A car going through a school zone is slow compared to normal road traffic,
but fast compared to foot traffic.
35 mph is (too) fast in a school zone or residential area, but slow
compared to normal highway speeds.
