A few years back, someone built a webpage that had various text fields with different typing latencies.

A bunch of my friends tried it, and it was really interesting to see that many of them were not bothered in the slightest by even quite high latency numbers.

Personally, I was mildly bothered by the "single frame of latency" example and _intensely_ bothered by all the higher numbers. It just felt really yuck to use; I would hate to be doing that all day.

I can't tell you what exactly it is, but yes: the world contains many developers going crazy with frustration - not because of a 30 second wait, but because of a 30ms render delay.
