Abstract

In one embodiment, a computing device determines a window of time that is available after each operation to fill a frame buffer. The device determines a first number indicating a number of elements of a requested content that fit into a display region, an increment based on an application-specific rule, and a second number indicating a number of elements to pre-generate based on the first number and the increment. The device selects one or more pre-generation tasks for pre-generating content for the second number of select elements of the requested content. During the window of time, the device executes at least a subset of the pre-generation tasks to pre-generate content for a corresponding subset of the select elements. The pre-generated subset of the select elements is stored in an application-tailored recycler.
