Tested this on an empty server and I didn't see any difference bettwen 300 and 333, same CPU usage being reported by htop (~8%, but I was expecting 0-1%).

I do not care if 66 is the best or of 300 is the worst... I'm just reporting what I think could be something wrong... Nobody confirm the problem? It appear to be identical to the one that happened a few weeks ago with the FPS limiter (in the case the problem was present on many more fps values)...
