Default Air Compressor Question

you've just discovered why the store has all those really big, heavy
compressors.

My neighbor bought a 2-gallon air compressor at Harbor Fright - the
Central Pneumatic model shown here.

It seems that the input can't keep up with output.

In other words, when he uses the blow gun adaptor, he empties the tank
faster than the compressor can refill it and after a very short period
of time, he has to put the blow gun down and wait until the pressure
builds back up.

Is this to be expected of an inexpensive compressor or is his unit
defective?
