 ᚠᚠᛖᛏᛋ (ContentMod) That's not necessarily cheating. It just means that the program performs at a precision of 10ms. They probably used ms as unit because it's the more common SI-prefix for time. What they did do wrong imo is to floor the number instead of rounding.

The wiki section you linked also contained the hint that Chrome, Safari, and IE all slow down animations to 100ms if they are faster than 50ms. That means over 80% of all internet users can't see very fast GIFs anyway. Impressive response. Sad that Opera has such a low share, and Chrome so high. I like Opera because it's fast and lightweight, which is not something you can say about FF, even though it does have a lot of redeeming qualities.
