Usual delay?

Thank you for making this very useful and convenient project! I was wondering if the delay in the stream as compared to real-time has gotten bigger with more usage perhaps? I was testing out the latency and I am seeing much more than the seconds of delay that the README mentioned.

Just curious if I'm maybe doing something wrong on my end. FWIW, I was streaming all comments without any filtering so it's definitely a lot of data!

EDIT: I timed it more concretely and I saw a latency of about 53 minutes between me posting a comment & seeing the same comment in the stream.
