It's clear that 500ms is unhelpfully slow, but since every invocation is a network transaction (as well as a local calculation) there is a cost to increasing the frequency. In a session with 5 users, for example, asking the server to update the spatial scene up to 150 times per second seems... over-eager. Maybe try with 100ms?

It would be nice if we could find a guideline from Dolby (or elsewhere?) on a recommended update rate. My searches haven't turned up anything yet.

Yeah, I think we need test 30ms and 100ms at one point by ourselves also.

I can see that faster rates would be important for a participant with head tracking - but I don't think we're supporting that yet, right?

Microverse works fine with Oculus head set's head tracking.

In that case, maybe we should set the rate depending on whether the user is immersed. Presumably much larger rates of angular change are possible than with the joystick-based interface.
