Interesting. Here's usually a delay of 3 seconds maximum. I just tried it even without any delay. Might be because it was not the first time today.
Topic delay: I experience an annoying delay on web pages after pressing VO + a to read from the cursor. For example to read an article on Wikipedia is no fun. It takes ages. For me there's to much delay after full stops and commas and when a link is anounced. Also the info how many objects a header on a web page has takes to much time for me. At least on my german OS VO anounces the objects in a header followed by a very long pause. Yes, I know of the Reader. But it's also annoying to hear again and again "clickable" at the end of a line. But honnestly: I don't dare to ask Apple for such small things as long as VoiceOver contains the real big bugs as pdf or tables in text documents or the VoiceOver calender issue in iOS.
