It usually takes 5-10 seconds after I enter a search query in the address bar.

FireFox and Chrome is immediate.

My search engine is Google, all on SBC/ATT DNS.

My brand new MBP is maxed out spec-wise.

safari is slow for me also.

Chrome is faster and Edge running under parallels 12 is faster.

Try disabling all extensions in Safari preferences > Extensions and plug-ins in Safari preferences > Security > Plug-In Settings. If it's better, re-enable a few at a time to find your culprit.

The only thing I installed was AdBlock because it would obviously speed up loading times.

I just turned off "Fraudulent sites" warning and it sped things up tremendously.
