To clarify I meant that I didn't experience any issues sending or receiving 
messages on those clients and I asked "Is there any reason why should I check 
them?" in case you are aware of an issue that I should check.

The initial sync takes around this on my system as well which seems to grow 
depending on the complexity of the account e.g. account that joined X amount of 
channels and sent X amount of messages will need more resources for the login 
procedure due to the zero knowledge federation.

Could you try the client again for fresh data ideally outside of the matrix.org 
homeserver? I always have issues on the upstream homeserver so it makes me feel 
like its not representative of the network.

FWIW there is a script for weechat that integrates matrix as well.
