This is against a Heroku hobby server. Latency is very low, as I’m on the East coast where I believe this server is.

Using LiveView, of course, requires taking round trip latency for your users into account. It currently won’t work well for some use cases where optimistic UI updates may help hide some latency. I think I read something about there being some optimistic updating in the works for LiveView, though, long-term, but I’m not sure how it’ll be done.
