We switched from our custom block storage solutions for object storage and we’re disappointed in the speed. Is there anyway we could retrieve objects asynchronously? Also some objects that are around 50 KB can take from 57 ms to 3 seconds… Will there be any improvements to have more consistent speeds?

It’s very unreliable. Certain files in my bucket have latencies >20 seconds where others are instant. A get on a 50 byte file takes 22 seconds just to connect in one case!
I don’t know how to improve your situation but I will just add that I had very similar results. Just wildly inconsistent from quick to seconds.
It doesn’t feel designed for small files at all, I think the primary target is files that would take a minute or more, so the slow initial responses wouldn’t really be felt.
Same problem, with small image it still took a lot of time to load. Waiting for improvements !!
