hello guys,
i have a question about the "stopwatches", i need to create 100 thousand counters every 10 seconds to be activated asynchronously, if i use the algorithm below will i have any future problems? or do I need to use the "Threading" library?

algorithm :

B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
    Public srvr As Server
    Private threading As Thread 'Need i use this ?
    Type TStopWatch (Identificador As String, cronometro As Timer)
    Dim stopwatch(99) As TStopWatch
End Sub

Sub AppStart (Args() As String)
    srvr.Initialize("srvr")
    srvr.Port = 80
    
    srvr.AddWebSocket("/appserver", "AppServer")
    srvr.AddHandler("/teste", "testes", False)
    DB.Initialize
    DB.Sync
    ServerManager.Initialize
    srvr.Start
    Log("Server Running on Port [80].")
    Log("AppServer Initialized on Port [80/appserver].")
    Log("JdbcConnectionPool Inintialized on [localhost:3306]")

    For i = 0 To stopwatch.Length-1

        stopwatch(i).Initialize
        stopwatch(i).Identificador = "identificador = "&i
        stopwatch(i).cronometro.Initialize("cronometro",1000)
        stopwatch(i).cronometro.Enabled = True

    Next

    StartMessageLoop
End Sub

'Return true to allow the default exceptions handler to handle the uncaught exception.
Sub Application_Error (Error As Exception, StackTrace As String) As Boolean
    Log("Error = "&Error)
    Log("StackTrace = "&StackTrace)
    Return True
End Sub

Sub cronometro_Tick
    
    'Log("sender = "&Sender)
    
    For i = 0 To stopwatch.Length-1
        
        If (stopwatch(i).cronometro = Sender) Then
            
            Log(stopwatch(i).Identificador & " # at " &DateTime.Time(DateTime.Now))
            Exit
            
        End If
        
    Next
    
End Sub

my fear is that there will be some inconsistency in the timers ...
is it stable?
