Narrative:
Working all boi sectors combined and controller in charge. An aircraft was turned to the standard 150 degree heading on departure and left on the heading too long. This heading placed the aircraft on a course toward restricted areas. The aircraft climbed faster than anticipated and leveled at 16000 feet and accelerated. The aircraft was turned on course when 7 miles from restricted areas airspace. The aircraft took much longer than expected to turn. The aircraft was given a more drastic turn at 4 miles from airspace to keep out of the restricted areas but still proceeded right next to airspace border during their turn. The aircraft did not penetrate the restricted area but was less than 3 miles from the border of airspace.I should have turned the departure as soon as they cleared the fly back area. When needing an immediate turn give a heading along with 'when able direct' instead of a turn direct to a fix. This would negate time pilot takes to reprogram FMS.
