Time interval period?

Question

What is the minimum amount of time interval for js?
I test it and was about 5 ms. when i set it to 1ms.
Is it depending on device?

Answer 1

The min timeout time is 4ms according to:

Likely the same for intervals. I could be wrong though, might be 1 ms.

Answer 2

For better timeout acuracy interval, you should look at the new 'requestAnimationFrame()' method, wich is designed for be called every delay instead of wait for the delay before next call ^^

Answer 3

Is there any solution to get a precise 1 ms?
