To note, people will have wildly different tolerance to delays and lag.

On the extreme, my retired parents don't feel the difference between 5s or 1s when loading a window or clicking somewhere. I offered a switch to a new laptop, cloning their data, and they didn't give a damn and just opened the laptop the closest to them.

Most people aren't that desensitized, but for some a 600ms delay is instantaneous when for other it's 500ms too slow.
