But complicated information like statistics or information of 20 cameras,

of 20 cameras at 60 FPS ? Nothing, unless you want to brag about your
hardware.
I'm afraid that's... highly questionable. The more video streams (etc.) that
are visible the smoother you want the overall presentation to be: the human
brain is /very/ sensitive to small timing differences.
Yes. I don't argue with that.
In addition, there are
standards for e.g. flashing indicators in safety-critical applications which
are specified with much finer resolution than 100 mSec.
So a 10Hz update is totally out of the question these days: 100Hz would be
more realistic.
I would be very interested to see experiments proving that this will make an
actual difference in human operator efficiency.
If something is that time critical, I would not leave it to a human operator to
begin with :)
