Try to move pins every time that task runs
Try to move pins every time you see a packet, and check on a scope
Read the wiki and see if you are doing things right for an RTOS-based port

Make sure you don't call low level routines from interrupt code, all non 
socket nor netconn calls must be on the same thread.

No, it is not normal to have delays unless something is causing those 
delays. lwIP is mostly event driven, when a frame comes in and you 
notice that, you send it to lwIP and it peels protocol by protocol until 
it either calls you (RAW API)/delivers to netconn/socket (which I don't 
master) or responds itself (ping).
If it does not responds itself asap is because you don't give it the 
frame or you don't let it run fast enough to do its job.

You can also check for known caveats with your port to your RTOS.
