Last night before bed, I was looking at on-chain data, and the chart suddenly "stuck," for a moment I thought my internet was down... Later I realized it was probably not the chain being slow, but the middle layer: the indexer/subgraph was rerunning, or RPC was being rate-limited. Basically, you're not looking at the raw blocks, but at a "ledger summary" organized for you by others. When busy, it can cause delays and missing data, and the frontend starts acting up.
Recently, everyone has been comparing RWA, US bond yields, and on-chain yield products together. I also pay more attention to the data sources: if the yield curve updates are inconsistent, the risk perception can easily be skewed by "lag." Anyway, when I look at TVL and yields now, I tend to check two or three sources for comparison. Even if it's slow, as long as the direction isn't wrong, that's fine.
