**Reply by k3kalinix | 2024-07-31 08:47:32** Hello \<@171751358347739136\>, This depends on the voice you choose, the information you upload to the character and your internet connection. ---

**Reply by hadrien6847 | 2024-07-31 08:48:49** Oh ok thanks you mean the longer the information the worse the latency ? my internet is 300mb/s so it’s not that but the voice is french… could it be related? and do u think using open AI api straight in engine would change anythiung? thanks ---

**Reply by k3kalinix | 2024-07-31 08:52:20** ElevenLabs voices are big in size and can increase latency. How many seconds on average do you get an answer? ---

**Reply by freezfast | 2024-07-31 11:05:33** it depends on the voice selected and geographical location, Convai voices are the fastest, Elevenlabs are the slowest to generate and Azure is moderate, 5-6 seconds latency is way too much, there might another reasons, do you get 5-6 seconds consistently or sometimes slow sometimes fast? ---

**Reply by nazbee | 2024-07-31 15:40:33** Ive found telling the character to keep responses short between 1-2 sentences keeps response latency much more natural. When it goes off on a long response it can take 5 or more seconds to return the data ---

**Reply by freezfast | 2024-07-31 16:03:45** and if possible try another network and/or machine, perhaps try using a VPN, my guess is that there’s a lot of handshake going on every request being made, that or the router firewall is being extra cautious [Next page](https://forum.convai.com/t/is-there-any-way-of-accelerating-the-latency-between-question-and-anwser-thanks/1344.md?page=2)
