Would it be possible to randomize within a given range the timeout of the update notification that happens when a perspective session is updated, or otherwise stagger the session updates to all active sessions?

I don't think this is possible as the setting is a static timeout in seconds in the Project Properties editor, and also I am unsure why you would want to do this...
