make timer task call each ${interval} seconds

[oleksii-volotskov]

Now it's wait ${interval} seconds

Let say interval 2 seconds
task processing takes 0.5 seconds

Curren solution:
process task - 0.4 sec
sleep - 2.0 sec
process task - 0.5 sec
sleep - 2.0 sec
process task - 0.7 sec
sleep - 2.0 sec

Required solution:
process task - 0.4 sec
sleep - 1.6 sec
process task - 0.5 sec
sleep - 1.5 sec
process task - 0.7 sec
sleep - 1.3 sec

You are right, but what to do if:
process task - 0.4 sec
sleep - 1.6 sec
process task - 1.5 sec
sleep - 0.5 sec
process task - 2.7 sec
sleep - ? sec

• sleep 0 secs?
• run another task after 2.0 secs of last process task?

I would rather appreciate having 0 secs sleep.
We could add some custom settings if we need another behaviour

What do you think?
