More like apples and apples, I think. Arne and I were talking about
Ajax and HTTP long polling. If there are no timeouts then intervals
between client requests _are_ roughly equal to intervals between
server receiving the request and the server sending back the response
(well, plus a bit of latency of course). That's really what long
polling is all about.
