I thought 100ms was basically the threshold for feeling "instant"?

But totally agree with your position on this in general!



It's a crap threshold. 100ms is 10 FPS. You can most definitely tell when something is updating at 10 FPS, vs. 20 FPS (50ms). Movement stops being jarring at ~30 FPS (33.3ms), but you can most definitely tell apart that and 60FPS (16.6ms).
