> I do not know how Javascript resolving it being single threaded, but i slightly remember some technic called polling. It seem javascript polling tecknic to UI maybe do to many calls out? I could accept a hundred times slower, like polling values every 1/100 of second but 1000 to 100 000 times slower seem ridiculous.

"Polling" means to actively read values instead of reacting to an event
or message. And yes, JavaScript can "poll" values from the UI very fast.

However: setInterval() will *not* work with 0ms. The delay will usually
be limited to a minium value as it makes no sense to constantly fire an
event handler without any delay.
