The matrix protocol is an open protocol where anyone can build on. You using the matrix protocol is the you using http. So your slowness equates to the server you are communicating with. Note: Yes, the protocol has issues when you are joining larger rooms. But for WhatsApp scale (max 256 users in a group) matrix works pretty well.
