> Doesn't thread just use setTimeout anyway?
Yes, but I had the idea that it balances out the processor load, to
compensate for the inherent lack of multi-threading in JS, allocating an
equal amount of processor time to each animation, I haven't tested whether
thread running 100 animations is more efficient than 100 animations using
their own setTimeout, but I would expect so.
