Long time to escape to supercruise. What does the attacker see? [problem with instancing]

I'm in Upaniklis, hauling cargo for Golconda. Of course it's hot there this days and gankers constantly interdicting me. Besides ruber-banding I have some problems with instancing. Time in hyperspace just before the jump to Upaniklis system is longer. I'm guessing it's normal, because hyperspace animation is something like loading screen, so I need to wait to load other commanders present in the system. But yesterday I saw something special: Time needed to jump from normal space to supercruise is also longer.
Now, this kind of situation: Commander interdicting me, I'm sumbitting, he open fire, I'm running from him, boosting and hitting J for low wake (when I see some pro-ganker or wing I'm choosing high wake ;) ). FSD is charged and I see "blue tunnel" to supercruise... but it takes longer than usually! 5 or even 7 seconds. And tunel is still here!... Finally I'm jumping to supercruise.
I'm curious what does my attacker see?
I'm still in his instance or maybe from his perspective I've jumped but I'm not present in supercruise for those 5-7 seconds? Or maybe from his perspective I'm still charging my FSD? I'm immune to his shots?
🤷‍♂️

As far as I'm aware, and if someone knows differently please advise us.....once the countdown to jump starts you are no longer vulnerable to damage, if it's charging then your still susceptible otherwise Grom bombs and FSD interrupt special effects would not work.

As soon as you enter the supercruise transition, your signal turns from a hollow square to a white square .... under normal circumstances, which becomes your wake signal. I should imagine it is the same with the extended transition. And the wake signal can be followed (if the pursuing ship is suitably equipped).

So from his perspective I've escaped. And from my perspective I'm still between normal space instance and supercruise instance?
--edit--

Just for clarification. I found some commander's video about that thing.
Countdown to low wake was ended but ship is not jumping! Imagine me and the attacker. What does he see? I'm still there or not? Where am I while blue tunnel is loading?

Yay P2P instancing. This happens A LOT when there are many CMDRs in an instance. I believe the attacker will see that you have waked out. For imuhrsion purposes, you are stuck in witchspace.

The blue tunnel is just one of many instancing issues we all have to deal with.

Yes, but isn't the 'witchspace' this 'another dimension space' when you jump beetwen the star systems? - I mean when we high waking? I'm still think what is happening when I'm stuck for few or over a dozen seconds in low wake 'tunnel'. Maybe it's the same. I've low waked from attacker but I'm still waiting for joining the supercruise instance. 🤷‍♂️
