Doberman
Doberman is your favorite watchdog timer. It makes sure your code is still alive, barking out loud if there's silence for too long.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'doberman'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install doberman

watchdog = Doberman::WatchDog.new(:timeout => 3)
watchdog.start
sleep 2
