I noticed a significant latency being added on things like selecting ‘Apply’ or bringing up config windows, or working in the IO/Monitor tab with the new firmware and ME’s connected.
I have not spent enough time to figure out if this is related to firmware update or having ME’s connected.
Is this expected / an issue with the new firmware?
All pointers appreciated.

You have ME’s?? Where did you get them? Do you also have an ME-U? I can’t seem to find either for sale on line in the US.
Please advise.

Yes, I have 8 ME’s 
I’m not using the ME-U, not needed for GLD, so bought a rack mount carrier grade PoE switch with 15W per port.
Still working out some config issues… not had enough time yet.
I got the ME’s from Alan at https://www.waveproaudio.com

Thanks. Apparently there are no ME-u’s to be had, not released yet. Where did you get the POE switch?
There are many options on PoE switches. Issue is finding high Power rating.
This one will run 8 MEs on PoE – ZyXEL ES1100-16P (15W per port)
Then if you going to be touring – antaira makes hardened PoE switches. LNP-800AGH can do 30W per port and is built like a tank… for example.
Cisco Refurbished PoE switches have enough PoE power to run more than 8, just google them / check power ratings
As I said, lots of options.
Carl.
Carl,
Have you had any issues with the ZyXEL ES1100-16P in configuration, power or latency?
