Is there any way in javascript to flush the command queue manually?

I want a tight loop, but I don't want it hogging all the resources because code is coming into execution queue faster then it's being computed.

is this on a browser client or on nodejs? i'm assuming it's on client side.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/window/requestAnimationFrame is a nice clean way to get new call on a loop without hogging resources.

you can also offload some work to webworkers.

it really depends on what you're doing exactly though.
