The best result was about 5 minutes delay. On a webbrowser the xmpp lib strophe offers a nice BOSH connection and no polling is needed. http://code.stanziq.com/strophe/
A 5 second delay could be done without problem. 5 seconds is faster than 5 minutes. Maybe you think 5 minutes are no problem. But think about an interface where you see live what other people are doing. The next step could be to implement a fast human to human communication. If you see somebody editing something in a strange way, you could give help on how to do it better.
