Time limit for onEnterSleep ?

Does anybody know what the time limit is for onEnterSleep() ?
I am doing something to switch layouts that may take too long before the device goes into low power. I have some unexpected results that I am trying to figure out and thought that a time limit may be applicable here.

Hey HermoT,

I'm looking into this right now. I think what you are asking is just a normal watchdog timer set by the watch. I don't think there are any other limits in place from what we are seeing on our side. I'll keep digging though and let you know if I find that is not the case.

Thanks,

I forgot to report back: I've solved my issue in the meantime. It was a matter of persisting state between the two methods so that if the watch face is shutdown during high-power mode, I can resume from that state when the face starts again.

But out of curiosity I'd still like to know after how many seconds does the watchdog trip?

The watchdog is set to roughly 1-2 seconds of execution on the VM. It is not set very precisely since it's primary purpose is to catch infinite loops.
