That's really interesting to me, because my daughter (6yo) asks Siri that question about 10 times a day on the 5S and the answer comes back in about a second. Whether we're on LTE or wifi. I wonder if there's other factors at play.

I believe Cortana would get that info back in less than a second. It seems Siri takes more than a second for me just to activate, before it even begins listening... Maybe this is an iOS 8 issue for the time being...?
