mnesia: Use chained send_after instead of send_interval
timer:send_interval behaves badly when resuming from sleep on some platforms. For example, if I sleep for 10 minutes, and have a send_interval running once per minute, when I resume, 10 messages will be sent immediately, eliminating the benefit of only running the work periodically. This is admittedly a separate bug with send_interval, but the workaround is straightforward, and also protects from messages piling up in the queue when the work takes longer than the interval. This patch fixes piled up error reports on resume from sleep: ** WARNING ** Mnesia is overloaded: {dump_log, write_threshold} You'll still be warned if mnesia is overloaded, just not repeatedly. Additionally, erlang:send_after is more efficient than using the timer module equivalent [1] [1] http://www.erlang.org/doc/efficiency_guide/commoncaveats.html#id57251
