in reply to Re^6: making a loop script with a remote URL call faster
in thread making a loop script with a remote URL call faster

I'm confident my code runs exactly every 60 secs.

But yes, as it is now, it can't raise an exception if the fetch takes longer than 60 secs. This would require using alarm

But no matter which interpretation or implementation this edge case needs to be defined and handled.
