JavaScript Isn’t Slow – It’s Just Scheduled Wrong
In this session, we’ll explore why JavaScript’s single-threaded model causes UI lag, why setTimeout() and requestIdleCallback() fail at task prioritization, and how scheduler.postTask() finally gives developers fine-grained control over execution.Through real-world examples, performance analysis, and a live demo, we’ll show how prioritized scheduling can eliminate UI freezes, improve responsiveness, and make JavaScript execution truly user-centric. If you care about JavaScript performance, this is the talk you don’t want to miss! 🚀
