[PUB/SUB] - SUB getting messages very 'slowly'

Hey, I’m using Kubernetes + Linkerd2 to make a ‘pub-sub’ scenario inside a Kubernetes Cluster using Python with websockets, the Publisher side works fine, but the subscriber does not. The messages are generated every few seconds, but the subscriber only receives then every 3-4min and they arrive at once, then its ‘stuck/freeze’, then all msgs from the last 3-4min arrive… When I try to subscribre from outside the publisher/cluster (the publisher is exposed) it works like a charm.
