OK, I checked the high beam functions - both functions (switching to high beams and "flashing" the high beams) work normally - no delay.
I also turned them off and back on about a half dozen times in the first couple of miles/minutes of driving. The longer they are on, the shorter the delay for them to come back on when switched off then back on. After a few minutes of being continuously on, they get to where the delay is miniscule - less than a quarter of a second (probably more like a tenth of a second)...
I swear, they behave exactly as if they have a ballast or electronic transformer (like a fluorescent bulb) or something that takes a few seconds to fire off initially, but responds progressively faster as it warms up during the first few minutes of operation...
