When I say a demo of the D-star system. There was no more delay than running a standard repeater controller with an audio delay module installed. If you look at a P25 system you will notice there is a small amount of delay as well. Also the Motorola subscriber units and others have a delay even in simplex mode using analog. I don't see anybody crying about these issues.

There is some delay but it is only noticeable if you are close enough to hear the transmitting and receiving station. I would say it isn't any worse than P25, ProVoice or any other IMBE/AMBE vocoder.
