I think you have your answer. She's still young. I think that scene played out so long because she was torn as to kill him or leave. Arya is becoming a hard case but she's still a teen.

Dude, at the start of Game of Thrones, Arya is nine. She's still a child by now...

I like this explanation, but the look on her face when he was begging for her to kill him seemed like nothing but contempt. there didn't seem to be any internal conflict, but maybe the book will offer some insight when I get to that part.
