How often was too often?

Our calls are mostly embedded within the holonomic drive VI, but they are fire and forget as far as our code goes. At a lower level, there is a command and response that is required by the FRC architecture, on the CAN bus. So there may be some hanging for a response at levels far below what we can touch. We occasionally get timeout errors for the jaguars, but that happens far less often than the above-mentioned wrong number of bytes error.
