Super Meat Boy Input Lag

With double buffer vsync @ 60hz, the max input lag isn't 16ms, it's potentially 32ms. Consider the following sequence of events: T=0 - buffer switch T=1 - new frame is rendered T=2 - input event T=16 - buffer switch (note that the frame now being displayed was rendered before the input event at T=2) T=17 - new frame is rendered T=32 - buffer switch (only now is the result of the input event.
