Somehow I missed you reply and started another similar thread today. Sorry. I'm still getting used to Google Groups.
[jQuery] Re: Processor-intensive JavaScript considerations
JS will only run one chunk of script at a time and while it's running even animated gifs can hang. You can certainly give an illusion of asyncronous scripts by clever use of timers to fragment the processing. This might release cpu time for the animations but as far as I know there's no easy way.
