buildOne report1 publisher Whisper's 300ms floor is architecture, not a bug: when live voice needs streaming ASR
A dev.to writeup argues Whisper is a batch model retrofitted for streaming. If your response budget is under a second on mid-range phones, that is a build decision, not a tuning exercise.
