Default Live Tile updates

Apologies if answered elsewhere, I hadn't found it.

How are updates of built-in live tiles handled? For example, I have my wife pinned to start. I have her latest tweets or FB updates shown on the live tile. However, it's not always current, and I can't figure out how long it goes before updating the live tile information (even if she has more recent updates in the People hub).

Make sense?

Thanks,
Mike

There is generally some delay but I dont know how long on average. I have my wife and daughter on live tiles and they update but they also come in on the messages tile as well It seems to be faster but it could be me.

im not 100% sure but I think the live tile update is direcly build into the app by the developer when the app is made , no way to change this to my understanding.
