We used these settings because they were a reasonable margin below the settings that caused >1sec lag on the classmate. I doubt bandwidth was the problem. Chrisisme's answer makes the most sense to me right now, we need to look into that some more. We ended up scrapping all of our camera code and physically unplugging the camera. The lag never came back, but who knows if it was the camera's fault or not...
You should try 320x240 with a compression of 40. Shouldn't be a significant difference in quality, and that will use significantly less bandwidth. Just a thought though, no basis for this other than some simple experimentation. Do you also have the updated dashboard code without the graphs etc. that were really slowing down with the camera running?
