Are you basing this opinion on feeling or science?

This feels instant on iOS, and scientifically it's faster than almost all keyboards, which have latency between 15ms and 60ms: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33817626 and the best computer latency was the Apple IIe at 30ms https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16001407 a network packet takes 190ms to go round the world, that's certainly longer but still not quite an eternity.

Also, you are of course free to do better :)
