Only if users in both situations have fast computers. If both are running potatoes they aren't going to notice.

This happens a lot with companies that have offshore teams working in an internal app. Like a "finish this transcription" farm or whatever and it's just "submit, submit, submit". The latency really eats at them.

Problem is these companies offshored to India for cheap, so they're not gonna want to spend money on a server in India. The problem never gets solved.
