From the Firefox 5RC1 release notes:

> Background tabs have setTimeout and setInterval clamped to 1000ms to improve performance

As far as I'm aware, Chrome does this also but I'm not sure what version it was introduced in.

If we could find a way to increase the audio buffer size in audiolib.js (the refill buffer it's giving us pretty small although we have a big preBufferSize) it'd probably be enough.
