By default it's 200ms, I'm using 500ms now but I believe we can also consider a higher number to take care of our CPUs.

In your testing, does #24001 lessen the need for this change? If so, how significantly?

I'm wondering if the change to 500 ms could worsen the experience of Save -> Wait for recompile -> Reload page. I'm also wondering if certain text editors can contribute by e.g. using certain swap files or autosaving methods that trigger webpack more frequently.

I didn't test properly tbh. My reasoning is that I'd rather wait 2 seconds when I save a file to refresh instead of having the CPU go crazy when I switch branches. I have no data to back this up.

This is worth trying out. I also wouldn't mind having an environment variable to override this.
