How often does Zotero poll for group library changes?
When group library members work asynchronously, synching ever-so-often (or at startup) is fine. However, sometimes we co-work, and then longer polling for updates is not ideal. How often does Zotero poll for remote changes to group libraries, and can it be set to poll more often?
For example, somebody in our team is doing some 'gardening' in our group library. And when I hit sync after say 10 mins, I get several items that have 'modified' timestamps within those last 10 mins (Edit: and spread out across those 10 mins - there's about a change per minute). So the sync is definitely behind by 10 mins.
Similarly, should the push local->remote be practically immediate as well?
Edit: The issue does seem to be intermittent. At the moment, the library syncs relatively quickly. Maybe it's an issue with push at the other end?

You can figure out where the problem is by making a change to your online library, which should appear in your local library in about 5 seconds.
Is it possible to make the 15 sec shorter (as an optional setting), in cases where we collaborate in real-time?
Another thing I was wondering about - suppose I keep making changes (as sometimes happens when somebody does 'gardening'). Is there a time-out after which sync will happen no matter what? If there isn't one, I think it might explain what we've seen in workshops...
We'll also try to add an auto-sync on wake from sleep.
