I am not sure whether its latency or "seek" to find the block from the history.

https://asciinema.org/a/y1yFZNO27LIyP9hRrDW9D4VaH : This can give you details of the exact query. Essentially, I am starting to stream from the block number in which the user @anyx was created

But if we look for a block number that is newer/latest, its quite fast

I was testing from India - yea, quite far, high latency etc. But I think its more to do with either the expected behavior of how looking up for a block works with rocksdb or tinman code.

I plan to test this from a server and will update

I am using Tinman for the tests - and will be playing with Tinman for a while. So will report more findings if any.
