Then it's something you are going to have to live with.  You can tweak
your apps to be less chatty.  Active link table walks, active link set
fields, active link push fields, etc. all require a round trip back to
the server.  Filter actions of the same type do not require a round
trip to the server.  If you enable the active link and api logging on
the client side, it should be fairly evident where the time is going.
See what you can eliminate and what you can offload to the server
side.
