Yes, but if she had kept her mind on what was going on,
instead of complimenting Harry, as if this was just a test
situation at school, she might have been a lot more
effective.

Instead of just silencing the DE, why didn't she choose to
"stupefy" him, preventing him to do any further harm,
instead of just keeping him from disclosing their location?

Hermione is an effective witch, but still has problems in
dangerous situations, where she has to make split second
decisions.

Not to say this isn't a perfectly normal reaction, but
Hermione gets elevated to "perfect at everything" status so
much... ;)

All just my opinion, of course :)
