Transfer

Mark a transferable object as such, so it will no be serialized and deserialized on messaging with the main thread, but to transfer ownership of it to the receiving thread.

Only works with array buffers, message ports and few more special types of objects, but it's much faster than serializing and deserializing them.

Note: The transferable object cannot be accessed by this thread again unless the receiving thread transfers it back again!

Mark transferable objects within an arbitrary object or array as being a transferable object. They will then not be serialized and deserialized on messaging with the main thread, but ownership of them will be tranferred to the receiving thread.

Only array buffers, message ports and few more special types of objects can be transferred, but it's much faster than serializing and deserializing them.

Note: The transferable object cannot be accessed by this thread again unless the receiving thread transfers it back again!
