DNS over HTTPS is actually a lot slower to resolve than traditional UDP DNS.

Yes, but only because of TCP and TLS connection overhead.

Once the connection is established, response time is similar to UDP.

Does the connection get reused?
Yes.
Not for long.
If the browser is controlling the resolver in question, there's no reason not to hold long-running connections, or reconnecting on disconnect.
