Trackpad single and double-click

Hi everyone,

I use trackpad for several years now, but I still push on it to make a single-click. It's because there is a delay between a tap and real action on the screen (about half of second!). I really have no idea why Apple need this really big and noticeable delay, because when you push the trackpad - there is no such delay, and both single and doubleclick features work as a charm. Is there a way to remove that delay? It seems that there is no such a standard option. Maybe some system adjustments or a third-party software?

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)

OK I've found the solution: you have to remove checkbox "Enable dragging" in Accessibility -> Mouse & Trackpad -> Trackpad Options, and set the checkbox "Three finger drag" in System Preferences -> Trackpad.
