Description

I've noticed that there's a bit of a lag between a route changing and the title property updating. I'm guessing that this is around 200 - 300ms. While minor, it does look just a bit off. I experience this in both my project and also running the react-helmet-example. Are there any suggestions about reducing this lag? If not, is there any known faster way to update the document's title?

Research direction
Investigate the title update mechanism in react helmet, specifically in the Helmet component. Look for asynchronous side effects or state updates that cause delay. Consider using requestAnimationFrame or implementing a more direct DOM manipulation. Review the comments in the issue for any proposed solutions or workarounds.
