# jQuery jQuery throttle / debounce: Sometimes, less is more! #

[http://benalman.com/projects/jquery-throttle-debounce-plugin/](http://benalman.com/projects/jquery-throttle-debounce-plugin/)

Version: 1.1, Last updated: 3/7/2010

jQuery throttle / debounce allows you to rate-limit your functions in multiple useful ways. Passing a delay and callback to `$.throttle` returns a new function that will execute no more than once every `delay` milliseconds. Passing a delay and callback to `$.debounce` returns a new function that will execute only once, coalescing multiple sequential calls into a single execution at either the very beginning or end.
