在某些时候，我们需要精确的启动一个func，如果用time.sleep简单的轮询，会因为执行的任务阻塞，或者其他原因导致无法精确的定时执行。
例如在采集某些数据的时候，需要精确的每60秒采集一次，如果直接简单的轮询：{1：计时1，2：采集，3：计时2，4：sleep(60-计时2-计时1)}，正常的时候看起来没什么问题。
但是如果在第二步“采集”的时候阻塞超过60秒，那就会导致后续的采集延迟了。
因此需要一个新的定时器，精确的定时触发操作，不管每一步操作有没有完成，到下一个时刻都要开始触发新的操作。
如下代码，每隔4s触发do_job这个函数，在这个函数中，如果触发次数是3的倍数，则sleep 5，其他则sleep 2。
import threading
import time
import logging
logging.basicConfig(
level=logging.DEBUG,
format="%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s"
)
def do_job(count):
logging.info("[%s] start job" % count)
if count % 3 == 0:
time.sleep(5)
else:
time.sleep(2)
logging.info("[%s] end job" % count)
def thread_time_running(max_runs=10):
alive_timers = []
for i in range(0, max_runs):
t = threading.Timer(4, do_job, [i,])
logging.info("starting thread %d" % i)
t.start()
logging.info("warning thread %d" % i)
t.join(timeout=4)
if t.is_alive():
alive_timers.append(t)
for i, t in enumerate(alive_timers):
if t.is_alive():
t.join()
thread_time_running()
执行之后如下：
