debug::heartbeat - debug narrative - heartbeat

debugheartbeat ?delta?
              This  method  activates  or disables a heartbeat with which to monitor the event loop of an event-
              based Tcl application.

              It reserves the  debug  tag  heartbeat  for  its  operation  and  writes  a  message  every  delta
              milliseconds.

              A delta-value <= 0 disables the heartbeat.

              The  message  produced  by  the heartbeat contains a sequence counter and the time in milliseconds
              since the last beat, thus providing insight  into  timing  variationsn  and  deviations  from  the
              nominal delta.

       This  document,  and  the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems.  Please
       report such in the category debug of the TcllibTrackers [http://core.tcl.tk/tcllib/reportlist].   Please
       also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either package and/or documentation.

       When proposing code changes, please provide unifieddiffs, i.e the output of diff-u.

       Note  further  that  attachments  are strongly preferred over inlined patches. Attachments can be made by
       going to the Edit form of the ticket immediately after its creation, and then using the left-most  button
       in the secondary navigation bar.
