A user reports that a chatbot application feels very responsive because it begins generating its answer almost instantly. Based on this observation alone, it is valid to conclude that the underlying language model is also highly efficient at generating long, multi-paragraph responses.

A company is developing a conversational AI for a customer service chatbot. User testing reveals that customers perceive the chatbot as 'slow' or 'unresponsive' primarily due to the noticeable pause between them sending a message and the chatbot starting to type its reply. To directly address this specific user perception issue, which efficiency metric should the engineering team focus on minimizing?
