Fast Refresh

[wonko]

Right now I have my AJAX read and write requests set on a timer to refresh every 300ms, but I noticed that if I'm on a computer with very slow internet it can't process the requests fast enough and doesn't work. Likewise a computer with fast internet is still limited to the 300ms.

I want to make the requests load as fast as possible depending on the user's internet connection, is there anyway to do this?

I dunno what your application is doing but I don't think anything that needs to refresh every 300 milliseconds should be doing it over HTTP.

I have a similar problem - a web front end to a webcam app (all localhost).

The refresh needs to be quick, but not so quick that it floods the server if it cannot keep up.
