@aparnaji, Orchestrator is the STOA Transformer-based NLU technology, which is much superior than the existing/legacy LUIS technology, so I would not recommend you reverting back to using LUIS. Other than that, LUIS is a web service, so there is a fixed network latency for making a prediction, while Orchestrator is a library (plus downloaded ONNX models), thus no network latency.

We know there is an Composer bot deployment issue uploading the ONNX models to an Azure VM and we have a task (https://github.com/microsoft/BotFramework-Composer/issues/6773) for addressing that. Essentially the ONNX models should be downloaded/deployed directly to Azure as that is lightening fast between Azure data centers, while uploading an ONNX model to Azure can take some time using an ISP (internet service provide)'s asymmetric upload/download broadband service.

On the other hand, if you have symmetric fiber-optic internet service, then the bot-and-ONNX-model deployment experience would also be a breeze.

Closing this ticket. #7892 #6773 are tracked for R14 and would address the root cause of this issue.
