timer-wheel's Issues

🙋‍♂️question

When the time interval for pushing the wheel is less than 500ms, the task scheduled between two pushes cannot be accurately obtained. Is this a problem of terminal performance? Is it avoidable?

const wheel = new TimerWheel<any>();
wheel.schedule('400', 400 /* ms */);
wheel.schedule('500', 500 /* ms */);
wheel.schedule('600', 600 /* ms */);
wheel.schedule('700', 700 /* ms */);
wheel.schedule('800', 800 /* ms */);
wheel.schedule('900', 900 /* ms */);
let i = 1;
setInterval(() => {
  console.info(i * 300, wheel);
  i++;
  const expired = wheel.advance();
  for (const data of expired) {
    console.info(data);
  }
}, 300);
