Use RequestAnimationFrame instead of SetTimeout #118

Closed TrueDoctor closed 3 years ago

Allow the browser to control the painting of frames.

"Note that requestAnimationFrame() lets you queue up JavaScript to run right before the style flush occurs. This allows you to put all of your DOM writes (most importantly, anything that could change the size or position of things in the DOM) just before the style and layout steps of the pipeline, combining all the style and layout calculations into a single batch so it all happens once, in a single frame tick, instead of across multiple frames. See Detecting and avoiding synchronous reflow below for more information." (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Performance_best_practices_for_Firefox_fe_engineers)
