Idk but, at least from Germany Twitter now loads slower. The comments below Elon's tweet load slow, my home timeline loads slow, even the notifications load slow. Before the "reduced by 400ms" change everything was faster for me (I never understood who perceives the Android app or Twitter in general as slow - NOW I do).

I'm guessing a dev made US calls faster, so that he/she can tell Elon it's faster without mentioning for the US only.

From Ireland, it feels like the _page itself_ is loading faster, but the actual info (timeline, replies to tweets, sidebars) are loading much slower and sometimes erroring out. I'm sure a metric on a graph somewhere has improved, but the user experience as a whole feels slower and more fragile than it did a few months ago.
