I have about 5-7 seconds of latency between when I press the button with Set column action and when the value is written.  
What could it depend on? is it possible to decrease this latency?

I think using Glide Tables would make it instant.

I have the same delay on one of my APPs and reading your problem I tested by using a direct write (numerical entry) and had almost the same: 6-7 sec to see my new data into my GS.

I don’t know if I’m wrong but it was faster before.

Anyone else has seen this behavior as well?

Saludos
