If I have wifi access, after taking a photo, by the time I go to edit or share it mere seconds or minutes later it's already been uploaded from my phone to the cloud. This then means the big delay grabbing the photo from the cloud.
Is there any way to try to make that better, other than turning off "optimize photo storage", which I can't do given my phone+library size.
(I'd also accept a rdar::// number if this is known issue)

Turn on Low Power Mode. Then automatic uploading won't happen.
Some people keep Low Power Mode turned on all the time. If you don't, you may turn it on before taking the photo and then turn it off after you've done processing it or uploading it to social media.
