Given that the whole system is targeted for laptops, this seems somewhat obvious and does not seem to be something you need to measure?
The worst thing I can think of is classroom environment - and even that would be at most 1 update per hour, which is pretty infrequent in the context (the update frequency needs to be much bigger than the clock skew, which is normally under a second)
And even that assumes that each record is updated every time user logs in (since each record is stored separately). In practice, records could be added or removed to the system, but the actual modification will be pretty rare - once initial setup is done, it will be only periodic password changes.
