This feature is already in place. What question do you have about it?
my bad didn't notice. Any datapoints on how fast it is now compared to pre-websocket latency? also wonder if there's a way to generally see these updates somewhere
Improvements vary significantly across models, network speeds, etc. The effect is most pronounced for very fast models like our "spark" model.

got it thank you!
