+Classes:

+
+Usage:
+    The `FPSCounter` class can be used to monitor the rendering performance of a `ViewBox` in a PyQtGraph application.
+    It connects to the `ViewBox`'s paint event and calculates the FPS over a specified interval, emitting the FPS value

+
+Example:
+    from qtpy import QtWidgets, QtCore
+    import pyqtgraph as pg
+    from fps_counter import FPSCounter
+
+    app = pg.mkQApp("FPS Counter Example")
+    win = pg.GraphicsLayoutWidget()
