RM vs Notifications: big time difference

Has anyone else noticed this? I was switching a Notifications app to RM so I could restrict it's action with a boolean. I did some testing after switching over and the delay is huge!

Anyone else noticed this?

I have noticed that using RM with variables for storing multiple switch states and then output
a Amazon Echo Speaks notification has a noticeable delay over the same without using RM variables.

Yeah I just tested again and I counted a solid 3 second delay difference. Odd.

If you're interested in troubleshooting, I'd turn on all logging for the rule, then compare that to device events and whatnot to see if you can tell where any delay might be. If you're not interested in troubleshooting, maybe just consider turning off "Display current values" in the rule to see if it helps (shouldn't matter much and mostly if you're viewing or logging but :man_shrugging:t3:).

I was thinking about doing that. Comparing the time stamps.
