Does chrome cap requestframetime

Made some animations in javascript. I made it in a 60 fps monitor so I didn't notice it till I tested it on my laptop which is 144 fps. The whole thing just doubled in speed.

I changed my screen refresh rate to 60 fps, the same machine then it went back to normal.

Just asking if this is a bug with chrome or, is chrome requestanimationframe really dependent on screen refresh rate.

Not really a problem, I just found it weird, I mean yeah I can just time the update, but yeah.

As stated in mozilla's developer doc:

The number of callbacks is usually 60 times per second, but will generally match the display refresh rate in most web browsers as per W3C recommendation.

So behavior is compliant to the description.
