33.3 ms gives you a 30 fps game which is standard and noticeable.
16.6 ms gives you a 60 fps game which is the quality standard. The extent to which it is noticeable is still a debate.
That said, a multiplayer game can tolerate more or less 150 ms maximum roundtrip and for this to be acceptable it has to implement Client-Side Prediction, Server Reconciliation, Entity Interpolation and Lag Compensation.
I figured that having 80ms of lag on the loopback does not look good to start with.
