Slow django-channels update - redis

Question

I went trough the tutorial for the new django-channels setup for 2.0 and have a problem with speed. It takes several seconds for me to send a message trough the chat to see that very same message appear back on my client.

I am using the windows redis client and this is the log from sending a single message and waiting:

[6060] 02 May 18:39:36 - DB 0: 7 keys (4 volatile) in 4 slots HT.

All my code is copy pasted from the tutorial. Could the issue lie in the redis config? I am simply using the default config.

This is embarrassing, the link I used for the windows installer was not the "latest stable" as I thought it was. Updating from 2.4.0 (or something) to 3.2.100 yielded instant responses just like I wanted it to be.

This was a non issue if I just used the correct installer from the beginning.
