During the development of gifsockets, performance was a major priority. We should embrace performance driven development as a core principle for this repository.

Things to perf:

Verify using ByteCapacitor over pushing for every byte is more efficient
- Test via both .read() and .on('data')
Switch to ndarray over typed arrays for NeuQuant

Reuse of indexedPixels instead of reallocating them for every analyzePixels

Performance of removing alpha channel vs iterating of rgba array (this.pixels)

In 0.4.1, we discovered that frame based buffers are required since byte by byte buffers will fall over. This takes care of the first bullet point.
