var fiber = schedula(60);

// push work
fiber.push(true, null, (a, b) => {
	console.log(a, b);
}, 3, [1, 2]);

// slow things down, this will throttle work to a 20fps budget
schedule.budget = 20;

// speed things up, this will throttle work to a 60fps budget
schedule.budget = 60;

// context
var foo = {
	bar: function (a, b) {
		console.log(a, b);
	}
