Median lag by window (hours). “Source → us” is how long after the source published we published; “Us → event” is how far our publication trails the event itself.

Lags are still higher than we want. Candidates used to be published first-in-first-out, which kept fresh items queued behind older ones; publishing is now ordered by source publication time, newest first. Older windows still carry the previous queue's lag, so short-window numbers should keep falling.

Pipeline (candidate queue): queued → published measures the editorial step, separate from collection.
