I have the following example code:

let last = Date.now() setInterval(() => { console.log(Date.now() - last) last = Date.now(); }, 20);

And it gives me the output

node .\fps_tester.js 20 26 29 31 31 31 30 30 29 

This is the only code running in this file, and my CPU load is low (around 9%). I tried to write a getaround like so:

let setIntervalPrecise = (callback, interval) => { let last_execution = Date.now(); setInterval(() => { let now = Date.now(); let delta = now - last_execution; console.log("Delta: " + delta) if (delta >= interval) { callback(delta); last_execution = now; } }, 1); }

But it gives me this nonsense:

node .\fps_tester.js Delta: 0 Delta: 15 Delta: 16 Delta: 31 31 ... 

I also tried with setTimeout, and it gave the same result. I am aware that this code runs just fine on a lot of other systems, but I'm curious as to why it might be failing on mine, and what workarounds I might employ to fix it
