Tick tuple using spout

[Sudha Subramanian]

Hi,

I want to configure my spout to emit tick tuples on 2 different frequencies
on different streams. My questions are as follows:

   1.

   I understand how this is done using a bolt. But, on a spout, will the
   tick tuple invoke the nextTuple method on every tick?
   2.

   How can I determine the frequency at which the tick was invoked?
   Meaning, the actual value of the time I configured in the config object?



Thanks, Sudha
