https://twitter.com/jaffathecake/status/306706682552143872

jaffathecake: Avoid "+new Date" to generate timestamps during animation. Use "Date.now()" or "performance.now()" instead http://t.co/Hle0qzxWeZ

Setup

var perf = performance;
    var pnow = perf.now;
    var dnow = Date.now;
    var round = Math.round;
    var getp = function () {return perf.now()};
    var getpr = function () {return Math.round(perf.now())};
    var getprc = function () {return round(perf.now())};
    var getpc = function () {return pnow()};
    var getdc = function () {return dnow()};
    var getd = function () {return Date.now()};
