laggy/hesitant throttle response when upshifting?

Brand new owner here; I've only put ~150 miles on it since I took the keys. I'm noticing, at times, that the car is slow to respond when I get back on the throttle after upshifting. If and when this happens, the car will jerk into the power when it kicks in a split-second later.

Is this normal? It doesn't seem to happen as often when I am not shifting and getting on the gas in rapid succession (if I delay throttle input a split second), but that's kind of how I'm used to driving.

I'm coming from a second generation Miata with a throttle cable, but I've also spent a lot of time in a third gen Miata with throttle-by-wire, and the shifts are fairly smooth.

Thoughts?
