Item Exporter predicate function executes more than once per tick

Issue type:

Short description:

When using a function from a script as a predicate in Item exporter, the script executes more than 20 times per second and is also much more inconsistent compared to item importer.

Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Bind the variable card with this function:

function main(item) {
  call++;
  let time = new Date();
  let timestamp = time.toLocaleTimeString();
  console.log(timestamp, "call:", call);
  return false;
}

2. Place the variable card in the predicate Item exporter slot that is connected to the target storage and item interface.
3. Check the logs.

Expected behaviour:

The execution frequency is no higher than 20 times per second, or the same as for the Item importer.

Thanks for reporting!

This is working as intended.

If you insert a predicate in an exporter, each stored item will be tested against the predicate (at most) each tick. So if you see multiple invocations per tick, that's normal, and how predicates are supposed to work.
