Improving the WPF DispatcherTimer Precision

WPF uses the DispatcherTimer to raise the Tick. The time between 2 ticks should always be the same, defined by DispatcherTimer.Interval. The advantage of using the DispatcherTimer is that the event is raised on the WPF thread. The disadvantage is that the WPF threat has also other things to do, which might take hundreds of milliseconds. If Interval is 1 second or shorter, the ticks are raised slower than as they should be. This article explains how changing the interval tick by tick can improve the regularity of the ticks.
