[ENet-discuss] Reliable packets and data sending approaches

[Nuno Silva]

60 times per second would probably be overkill on most connections,
considering you send packets every 16ms, which IMHO may be a bit too fast
even for TCP. Do notice that i'm no networking expert, but having a guy from
the other side of the world send/receive packets every 16ms instead of the
usual 50ms will need a pretty darn good connection.
