Description Matthew Delaney 2011-05-20 13:56:47 PDT 
My understanding is that all ports either are currently manually setting the default to 4ms, or would like to be. Thus, we should just make the global default to be 4ms and then those who would like to opt-out of such high frequency timers can manually set the min interval to be larger. There also appears to be a lot of code that could be refactored/cleaned-up here. This bug should address all of this.

It doesn't seem like other ports chose to make this change. Not sure if that's intentional, or they just didn't get to it yet.

Alexey,
The w3 standard says that the minimum should be 4ms right...Could you tell me which ports are not defining the minimal interval? I will try to make the changes for those ports.

You van grep the sources for ports that don't call setDefaultMinTimerInterval.

Marking this bug as a duplicate even though it is older, as I already uploaded the patch to the other bug report.
