It takes about 300ms after a three finger drag for it to take effect. I notice the delay because an actual click drag releases instantly
Anyone know of a hack to get rid of it??

I have also been frustrated by this problem and found a github app that fixes the annoying delay.
Now I can copy and paste without the delay!
