"""Timers for performance monitoring.
Timers are best added using the perfmon config file, which will
monkey-patch the timers into the code at startup. See
napari.utils.perf._config for details.
The collecting timing information can be used in two ways:
1) Writing a JSON trace file in Chrome's Tracing format.
2) Napari's real-time QtPerformance widget.
Attributes
----------
timers : Dict[str, Stat]
Statistics are kept on each timer.
trace_file : Optional[PerfTraceFile]
The tracing file we are writing to if any.
Notes
-----
Chrome deduces nesting based on the start and end times of each timer. The
chrome://tracing GUI shows the nesting as stacks of colored rectangles.
However our self.timers dictionary and thus our QtPerformance widget do not
currently understand nesting. So if they say two timers each took 1ms, you
can't tell if one called the other or not.
Despite this limitation when the QtPerformance widget reports slow timers it
still gives you a good idea what was slow. And then you can use the
chrome://tracing GUI to see the full story.

Comma separated categories such has "render,update".

Print the duration of the timer when it finishes.
