That's something I've recently added to Backbone.LayoutManager[1], but it's still sitting in a PR while we figure out the 1.0 API. The PR is complete, however, so feel free to use my branch. It does offer very meaningful speedups, especially when data changes rapidly or causes a chain reaction. I have not benchmarked it in comparison to React/Om but it is very fast. The implementation is simple; when render() is called, the render is queued up. Every ~16ms (RAF or setTimeout), any pending renders are executed. If another render() is called within that time frame, the earlier is dropped. So long as you expect an async API and listen only to events/hooks ('beforeRender', 'afterRender'), it works pretty well. Backbone.LayoutManager supports it fully and it is configurable in case you rely on synchronous renders, which can be helpful in tests. 1. https://github.com/tbranyen/backbone.layoutmanager/pull/421 https://github.com/tbranyen/backbone.layoutmanager/pull/421
