Is there a latency difference between querying from the feature store and delta table?

Our team ran a benchmarking experiment comparing queries from the MLFlow feature store vs directly from delta table, and we found querying delta table was ~2-3 times faster than the feature store. So I’m wondering if someone else has done a similar benchmarking before and can validate our claim. Thanks!
