Why not pick daily as the frequency to check (application does not necessitate tight-synchronization anyway). We can have on-demand based synchronization as a backup/safety net plan. If a user actually opens the local document, the client-portion of the service will call the server-portion of the service (which hosts the documents) and that in turn will check if there is a change in the original/remote document.
If the document is a popular document, it will stay up-to-date with much finer granularity than a day.
