I believe hardware sync / animation stuff is currently in development but this might help:

FR: Callback or other mechanism for exposing Component debugging/timing

You’re right, it’s called at every VBLank event, and it’s main use case is to update the Component’s state in lockstep with the screen refresh and have smooth animations that way. So you’d actually call repaint() from inside a VBlank callback when necessary. The Component relationship is indeed for deciding which peer to attach to. I can see now that it’s not exactly useful for your use case, because it doesn’t in any way line up with the paint times of one particular Component. In fact first …

My experience is animations generally look best at 60fps unless your paint calls are too slow…
