given are the following 2 functions.
func main() {
index := int(0)
for {
Loop(index)
index = (index + 1) % 86400 // Max interval: 1 day
time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
}
}
func Loop(index int) {
if index%10 == 0 {
go doSomething...
}
}
I want to execute something every 10/60/3600 seconds. So I thought an incrementing index with modulo should do this.
But what I noticed (especially on high traffic servers) that it appears to skip some of that loops.
I looked in my logs and sometimes there is something every 10 seconds but sometimes there is a gap up to 1 minute.
Does anybody know why this is happening?
