> A super lightweight fps meter, with near zero overhead
*createFpsMeter* is a function factory, it returns a new meter.
But why not a class? Last time I checked, accessing instance properties was slower than accessing variables on a near closure.
### Usage
JS fiddle Example: https://jsfiddle.net/Victornpb/g8pra2a6/
```js
import microFps from 'micro-fps';
```
const REFRESH_RATE = 2; //update twice a second
const fpsTick = createFpsMeter(info=>{
fps_div.innerHTML = info.fps.toFixed(2);
console.log(info);
}, REFRESH_RATE);
Then call the returned function on every frame of your loop
//game loop
setInterval(function loop(){
fpsTick();
//do stuff
}, 1000/60);

### Builds
If you don't use a package manager, you can [access `micro-fps` via unpkg (CDN)](https://unpkg.com/micro-fps/), download the source, or point your package manager to the url.
`micro-fps` is compiled as a collection of [CommonJS](http://webpack.github.io/docs/commonjs.html) modules & [ES2015 modules](http://www.2ality.com/2014/0
-9/es6-modules-final.html) for bundlers that support the `jsnext:main` or `module` field in package.json (Rollup, Webpack 2)
The `micro-fps` package includes precompiled production and development [UMD](https://github.com/umdjs/umd) builds in the [`dist/umd` folder](https://unpkg.com/micro-fps/dist/umd/). They can be used directly without a bundler and are thus compatible with many popular JavaScript module loaders and environments. You can drop a UMD build as a [`
