After installing latest Android 6.0, phone has become slow. It takes more than 5 to 7 seconds to call a contact after I dial the contact. Please fix this asap.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! We're not Google or LG, so we can't fix it. I can suggest that you try a cache partition wipe, though: http://forums.androidcentral.com/nexus-5-rooting-roms-hacks/352008-guide-nexus-5-recovery.html. Be aware that this can take 5-10 minutes on a Nexus 5, so be patient.
I am having a terrible time with Marshmallow. Apps and OS are laggy. Calls take forever to dial out. Calls initiated from phone while in car do not connect to car BT. SMS messages will not send. Phone does not lock on auto sleep, despite setting to lock after 5 seconds.
All in all the update is terribly buggy or the Nexus 5 simply does not have enough horsepower to run it well. I am really annoyed and I hope that Google releases some bug fixes soon.
Also, I did the Cache Partition wipe. It took FOREVER (like 15 minutes of no activity, which feels like forever) and has not made any difference.

Its not a horsepower problem. The Nexus 5 is quite capable. My son has my old Nexus 5. He did the OTA Marshmallow update and it runs very well.
Since you already did a cache partition wipe I suggest a factory reset. Don't forget to do backups first!

One more thing you could try prior to the factory reset would be Safe Mode, in case you have a 3rd party app that isn't playing nice with Marshmallow. https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/2852139?hl=en
The automatic backup in Android 6 worked fine for me when I did a factory reset. It restored my contacts, appointments in the calendar, all my apps even the paid ones, and all my settings. It even restored the WiFi passwords I'd entered for various coffee shops and restaurants where I spend time.
