When your program inserts a DispatcherTimer object (timer) into the queue of a Dispatcher object, the dispatcher processes the timer at a specified time interval. If the dispatcher is processing a large number of messages, the timer might not be evaluated at the expected time.

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
