Hi Eric, thanks for following up. This one is very strange. Below is the status report. This is from our dev server which has the same issue.
We have tried all sorts of combinations with plugins. But it just became really obvious that as soon as we deactivate WP Stateless we had no issue with TTFB. Very strange!
We have been running WP Stateless for a good couple of years now.
