Pleas doe not use this as a reference, For AF it “simulates” the flow with animations.  
that is not representative for normal flows executions.  
[See my test with 25x Delay 0 Sec. / ANY / ALL](https://community.homey.app/t/faq-advanced-flow-infinite-canvas-infinite-creativity/65145/42)  
These Hops don’t take any serious time in flows, only in Test / Simulation.

Standard Flows start all “Then/Else” Actions at the same time, where in AF you probably chain them.  
But there should not be a real big difference between fe the flow you shared in AF or in Standards Flows.
