You are right dz, but... relying on timing is not a good programming
practice. There exists no "correct speed". What may work on a given system
may break on a slower system, because the queue event dit not get flushed
fast enough.

If we need to be sure an event has been processed, the only correct
programming is two-way synchronous communication. And LSL make it tedious,
at least.

A synchronous llMessageLinked, or a llSayWaitAnswer would be a HUGE step
towards clean, structured programming.
