DESCRIPTION

API

23       debug heartbeat ?delta?
24              This method activates or disables a heartbeat with which to mon‐
25              itor the event loop of an event-based Tcl application.
26
27              It reserves the debug tag heartbeat for its operation and writes
28              a message every delta milliseconds.
29
30              A delta-value <= 0 disables the heartbeat.
31
32              The  message  produced  by  the  heartbeat  contains  a sequence
33              counter and the time in milliseconds since the last  beat,  thus
34              providing  insight  into  timing variationsn and deviations from
35              the nominal delta.
