However, downshifts are still virtually instantaneous (downshifts feature automatic rev-matching).

I noticed better behavior out of the transmission after I got my Eurocharged tune. I've heard that some of the other tunes have beneficial impacts in that department as well.
My 13' e92 M3 had a slight delay between paddle click and gear change also, even in it's most aggressive S6 setting. That got better with the BPM tune.
