How to shift faster?!?!?!

Wow geez man I got so much hate im practically in tears lol. Maybe i should have been more specific. I gave an example cuz im not exactly sitting in my car where id 'feel' the right RPM and be able to comment. Maybe i should have gave a timeframe instead ya?

Let's say...im shiftin from 1st to 2nd. It takes rougly 1-1.5secs to push the clutch in, let the RPM fall, and engage 2nd gear smoothly. Somehow i just feel this is too slow. It seems that when i push the cluth in, the RPMs stay as if i had not let the clutch out at all (i think the syncro rev match). In fact, the rpm wont fall until i move the shift lever into 2nd gear....that's when the rpm will drop down and i can engage the clutch.

Does anyone else notice this or just me? If i turn the rev match off the rpms will fall sooner (like a regular manual tranny) and i can shift faster. Does this make sense?
