      From Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, Kagi is very slow, 2-3 second wait for search result.

        matusfaro It looks like you are using a VPN? No way Zurich is going to be the closest node?

            Vlad Sorry I didn't get a notification you replied.

            I am not sure what happened there, I may have forgotten my VPN on. Here is the result again:

                matusfaro Thanks. Is Kagi still slow for you after the update today?

                    New Zealand. I do find Kagi significantly slower than Google, though it's not painfully slow.

                      Nition Would you be able to post a side by side video of a query in Kagi and Google for you?

                          I couldn't think of an easy way to start both searches at exactly the same time, but you can see that although I start the Kagi search first, it doesn't show results until just after the Google search is done. Both are pretty fast though!

                          For the record I have a 300Mbps down/100Mbps up connection.

                            Nition Thank you this is very useful... Can you share a screenshot of your network traffic tab in the browser inspector, specifically of the main Kagi request?

                                Hi, it's a bit different each time, but this seems fairly representative:

                                  Fast enough here. But compared to Startpage, Google and DuckDuckGo still a bit slower.

                                    Nition This shows it took about 2.2 seconds to show results. That is a lot. We will look more into it.

                                        Kagi pages load quickly - but results take 3+ seconds to appear.

                                        It looks like perhaps the page doesn't lazy load results and some take longer than others to return.

                                          sm Thanks, can you post a video of typical result load for you with network tab open? And also one using https://kagi.com/html

                                              Vlad sure thing - I'll do that tomorrow when I'm on my laptop again, in the mean time here's a video of similar performance in Safari on my iPhone 12 Pro:
