Slow scene changes since update 1.6

Slow / delayed scene changes in 1.6 update.
Cross fade is not active and time is 0.00 sec

Scene change used to be almost instantaneous in 1.5 firmware, however since the update to 1.6, scene changes seem to take about 2 seconds after confirmation or executions.
Is this because or the cross-fade feature additions?
Really annoying, or is it just me?

I would really like to know more about this. Has anyone else experienced this too?
I haven’t updated our board yet. A 2 second lag time can seem like an eternity in live sound.
