Quick question: For AO3, is it possible for there to be a delay between the story updating on site and FFF being able to fetch the changes?

I recently updated the summary of one of my own AO3 fics. Immediately after updating and seeing the changes live on site I queued up an overwrite-always (also had some typo fixes). It downloaded but had the old summary. A few minutes later I tried again and it downloaded with the new summary.

Just trying to figure out what happened. Doubt it's a normal situation to update a fic some 60 seconds after the changes go live, so should I wait a few minutes in the future?
