I've got a couple buttons that are used to navigate a carousel of "cards" - forwards and back. The buttons take a long time to respond - about a half second I think.

Then they hilight for some period of time - a significant portion of a second, then the hilight goes away, and then you can touch again. Maximum velocity seems to be about one click a second. This is awful when the user wants to hop six cards forwards because we are waiting on first the click detection and then the button animation all the time.

Can this be sped up? The app feels very clunky.
