After many failed attempts to solve it myself, I have stumbled on the desired solution. For the sake of completeness, here's what I had to do is replace the
# simmulate a handful of iterations of sitting in what otherwise would
+ be an infinite loop
for my $i (0 .. 10)
{
...
}
with the following
$loop->recurring(1 => sub {
$self->app->log->debug("Doing periodic useful thing");
});
Of course, the new code is truly a while(1) loop, constantly firing the repeating event, rather than the original example which was only supposed to fire 11 times. However, I actually wanted this behavior anyways.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
