How does the Roku HLS player determine how often to reload the HLS playlist when viewing a live HLS stream? When viewing a stream (that is intended to have the lowest latency possible), I am seeing it reload the playlist consistently every 2.5 seconds, but at this rate it is missing some of the video files. Is there a way to tweak how often it reloads?

There isn't. You probably need to expand the window - don't expire your segments so quickly. You can push the playback closer to real time like this:

time=createobject("rodatetime")
    now=time.asseconds()
   
    videoclip.playstart=now+1800
